New Research Examines Impact of Rising CO2 Levels on Global Warming
New research led by the University of Washington examines the relationship between CO2 levels and climate sensitivity, providing insights into future temperature projections. By analyzing the most recent ice age, scientists aim to refine their understanding of how CO2 influences global temperatures. The study narrows the estimate of climate sensitivity, offering a more optimistic outlook for future warming scenarios with higher CO2 concentrations.
Research Suggests Global Decrease in Carbon Dioxide Emissions Caused Earth’s Longest Ice Age
Recent research from the University of Sydney suggests that Earth’s longest ice age, known as Snowball Earth, may have been caused by a global decrease in carbon dioxide emissions. The study sheds light on the significant influence of geological processes on Earth’s historical climate patterns and offers insights into the impact of human activities on carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere.
