This would increase the annual carbon emission to somewhere between 380 and 920 Mt CO 2 e by 2020 depending on water management practices and the extent of plantations. Despite increasing awareness of climate change in that period, the rate of peat destruction was higher in this last 3 year period than ever before. Miettinen, J.,

Groundwater is being depleted in California’s Central Valley at a rapid rate, according to a team of researchers analyzing data from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite in a paper published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters. They found that the basins are losing water at a rate of 31.0 ± 2.7

To discern whether this extensive CH 4 venting over the ESAS is a steadily ongoing phenomenon or signals the start of a more massive CH 4 release period, there is an urgent need for expanded multifaceted investigations into these inaccessible but climate-sensitive shelf seas north of Siberia.

The growth in hydrous ethanol, which uses a blend of 94-95% ethanol to 5-6% water, rapidly increased during the 1980s, with consumption peaking in 1989. Consumption of anhydrous ethanol has grown steadily since the 1990s, peaking in 2003.

the amount of ice above the water line relative to the local sea level. This schematic shows the geometric relationship between freeboard (the amount of ice above the water line), snow depth, and ice thickness. The result is more open water in summer, which then absorbs more heat, warming the ocean and further melting the ice.

A 2006 study by Wahr and Velicogna using the GRACE satellite indicated that Greenland lost roughly 684 cubic kilometers (164 cubic miles) of ice from April 2004 to April 2006—more than the volume of water in Lake Erie. This animation depicts the spread of ice loss into northwest Greenland observed by GRACE from 2003 through 2009.

Well, then, youre back to coal burning power plants, and a dirty little secret the H2 hypers dont like to discuss: The electrical storage efficiency of water electrolysis, compression for storage, and PEM fuel cell combined is only 23%. Or did you think all that H2 would be produced by electrolysis only, at a higher cost?

But in a year that has seen both a worsening recession and state budget crisis, residents’ support for urgent action on climate change has slipped and a partisan divide on the issue has widened. But in the current economic climate their support has dropped a notch. Californians clearly support policies to improve the environment.
