#Webb Discovers #Methane, Carbon Dioxide in Atmosphere of K2-18 b
"The abundance of methane and #carbon dioxide, and shortage of ammonia, support the hypothesis that there may be a water #ocean underneath a hydrogen-rich #atmosphere in K2-18 b. These ... observations also provided a possible detection of a molecule called ... DMS. On #Earth, this is only produced by #life. The bulk of the DMS in Earth’s atmosphere is emitted from phytoplankton in marine environments."

A #fireball streaking across the #sky isn't a #UFO. It's a completely normal and natural phenomenon known as a #bolide—a mass (typically a rock) that burns up and disintegrates as it traverses #Earth's #atmosphere. Trying to associate these events with UFOs is misguided, and ultimately damaging to the legitimate study of unidentified arial phenomena.

Another shot from yesterday at #WWTCastleEspie - one of many spider webs draped in droplets of water from the mist.
Surprisingly difficult to capture the atmosphere on camera - truly magical.

What is #carboncapture?
The U.S. is investing in technologies that keep #CO2 out of industrial #emissions — or that remove it from the #atmosphere

I was born at 354.29 ppm CO2.
Today we have 416.43 ppm CO2 in atmosphere.
What was your CO2 birthyear?

Loretta Mickley (https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2023/08/wildfires-are-much-worse-than-a-sign-of-climate-change-says-expert/):
"#ClimateChange affecting the succession of vegetation in an #ecosystem. [...] If you burn, for example, the conifers in Sierra Nevada, you may not get conifers back. It’s too dry and too warm during certain times of the year. That could be another source of #carbon into the #atmosphere. There is some concern that after the recent very large fires in the western U.S., [...] given the changing climate, we won’t see the same dense vegetation return"

On the two-way feedback #wildfires vs #ClimateChange:
"For Loretta Mickley [...] the fires present a dual problem:
Not only are they a symptom of climate change — becoming bigger, hotter, and more common in regions where they can affect large population centers — but they also make the crisis worse. By burning vast layers of partially decomposed vegetable matter called #peat, fires like those in #Canada release even more #GreenhouseGases into the #atmosphere"

#Smoke by #wildfires may also be connected with #"Earth’s radiation budget through absorption of incoming shortwave radiation" with potentially underestimated effects [3]. "Wildfires emit large amounts of #BlackCarbon and light-absorbing organic carbon, known as #BrownCarbon, into the #atmosphere" and [3] suggests that "a type of dark brown carbon contributes three-quarters of the short visible light absorption and half of the long visible light absorption"

Rising #methane could be sign that #Earth's #climate is part way through 'termination-level transition.' Since 2006, the amount of heat-trapping methane in Earth's #atmosphere has been rising fast and, unlike the rise in #carbondioxide (CO₂), methane's recent increase seems to be driven by biological #emissions, not burning of #fossilfuels. Methane was about 0.7ppm of the air before humans began burning fossil fuels. Now it is over 1.9ppm and rising fast. https://phys.org/news/2023-08-methane-earth-climate-termination-level-transition.html #climatecrisis
