The volcano ejected an estimated 800 cubic kilometers of ash into the atmosphere, leaving a crater (now the world's largest volcanic lake) that is 100 kilometers long and 35 kilometers wide. Ash ...
Earth Sciences | Read moreIs Global Warming Unstoppable?
“It looks unlikely that there will be any substantial near-term departure from recently observed acceleration in carbon dioxide emission rates,” says the new paper by Tim Garrett, an associate profess...
Earth Sciences | Read morePredicting the fate of underground carbon
A team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has developed a new modeling methodology for determining the capacity and assessing the risks of leakage of potential underground car...
Physics and Astronomy | Read moreResearchers Pioneer New Approach to Assist Scientists, Farmers
ORNL and LANL scientists are exploring the large potential of the earth’s soils to sequester carbon, with estimates claiming that new land-use practices could greatly reduce U.S. carbon emissions by a...

C&EN Senior Editor Alexander Tullo explains that rolling resistance — the friction that tires encounter when rolling — are a major factor in a vehicle’s fuel economy. It can determine up to 20 percent...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation | Read moreDeveloping 'green' tires that boost mileage and cut carbon dioxide emissions
The new tires could help add an extra mile or two per gallon to a car's fuel economy. That's the topic of the cover story of the current issue of Chemical & Engineering News, (C&EN) ACS'...
Materials Sciences | Read moreFossil fuel CO2 emissions up by 29 percent since 2000
An international team of researchers under the umbrella of the Global Carbon Project reports that over the last 50 years the average fraction of global CO2 emissions that remained in the atmosphere ea...
Ecology, The Environment and Conservation | Read moreHuman emissions rise 2 percent despite global financial crisis
The paper – by scientists from the internationally respected climate research group, the Global Carbon Project (GCP) – says rising emissions from fossil fuels last year were caused mainly by increased...
