Last January, in the waters off Cebu City in the Philippines, researchers first deployed a huge flexible ring seeded with seaweed and spanned by spokelike ropes and tubes. But the seaweed industry is collapsing as climate change warms the upper layers of the ocean, preventing nutrient-rich waters from rising from the depths.

Rice—which provides nearly half the daily calories for the world’s population—could become better adapted to stresses resulting from climate change and some catastrophic events through what researchers are calling “symbiogenics”—symbiosis-altered gene expression. These findings, Redman et al. 0014823.

The High Altitude and Long Range Research Aircraft ( HALO ) is equipped with a total of 20 measurement instruments to record the various gas and particle emissions of major cities and the related reaction products. Ground measurements are being taken in China, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, the Philippines and Thailand, for example.

Emissions of two of the most important climate change gases increased last year, according to a preliminary analysis for NOAA’s annual greenhouse gas index, which tracks data from 60 sites around the world. Pinatubo (Philippines) in 1991 each slowed CO 2 buildup for several years. Tags: Climate Change Emissions.
