Instead Carbon Capacity Increases

A positive effect of global warming is to increase the capacity of trees and vegetation in reservoirs for carbon dioxide. A study dipimipin Jerry Melillo of the Marine Biological Laboratory, the United States show that.

A summary of the study, published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences publication said recently that global warming is carbon dioxide stimulates the capture of a greater number of the facility. According to researchers, the more carbon dioxide absorbed by plant photosynthesis, leads to more nitrogen, which allows you to change the terms of the soil temperature is warm.

During this time, he said Melis, the trees that exist in the United States are generally very limited nitrogen. "We found that global (worldwide) is trapped in the soil organic nitrogen compounds to nitrogen to be released as inorganic compounds. When these trees to incorporate inorganic nitrogen, growth will be faster and hold more carbon," explains.

He added keseimbangkan amount of carbon in forest ecosystems in the coming decades, when the phenomenon of climate change occurs depends on many factors. "For example, water availability, the increased temperature of photosynthesis and respiration, and carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere, "said
