Most of this nitrogen transport comes from whale urine, which stimulates phytoplankton growth and photosynthesis. This increase in the rate of photosynthesis could lead to 18,180 tons of carbon ...
Whale poo is responsible for moving tonnes of nutrients from deep water up to the surface. Now new research shows that whales also move vast quantities of nitrogen thousands of kilometres in their ...
They estimated nitrogen transport through urea excretion, placenta release, and whale carcasses, using data from fasting elephant seals to estimate excretion rates. Results These whale species move ...
Liquid nitrogen has a boiling temperature of -320°F (-196°C) and will boil away rapidly when exposed to room temperatures. Therefore, insulated equipment must be used to ensure efficiency and safety.
“The main goal of this research is to identify factors affecting the transport of nitrogen into our water bodies and determine the right combination of stocking rate, grazing duration, and ...
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) which mainly comes from combustion in transport and industry, but is also emitted from fertilised fields. Nitrous oxide (N2O), a greenhouse gas that is 300 times more potent than ...
Results point to the possibility that more nitrogen molecules than previously thought were carried close to Earth, possibly acting as the building blocks for life on our planet. By analyzing the signs ...
Nitrogen is in the soil under our feet, in the food we eat, and in our DNA, the building blocks of life. Without it, there would be no life on Earth. Nitrogen helps to make croplands fertile and is a ...
Emissions of nitrogen from road transport and other industrial sources have also fallen since 2012, but at a slower rate of decline, the report adds. Long term trend Looking at the long term trend in ...
