  3. Biological carbon fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_carbon_fixation

    This is known as carbon isotope discrimination and results in carbon-12 to carbon-13 ratios in the plant that are higher than in the free air. Measurement of this isotopic ratio is important in the evaluation of water use efficiency in plants, [32] [33] [34] and also in assessing the possible or likely sources of carbon in global carbon cycle ...

  4. Direct air capture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_air_capture

    Direct air capture (DAC) is the use of chemical or physical processes to extract carbon dioxide (CO 2) directly from the ambient air. [1] If the extracted CO 2 is then sequestered in safe long-term storage, the overall process is called direct air carbon capture and sequestration ( DACCS ), achieving carbon dioxide removal and be a "negative ...

  5. Atmospheric carbon cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_carbon_cycle

    Large amounts of carbon dioxide are dissolved in cold water in higher latitudes. This water sinks down and brings the carbon into the deeper ocean levels, where it can stay for anywhere between decades and several centuries. [2] Ocean circulation events cause this process to be variable.

  6. Carbon cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_cycle

    Man-made (synthetic) carbon compounds have been designed and mass-manufactured that will persist for decades to millennia in air, water, and sediments as pollutants. [ 105 ] [ 106 ] Climate change is amplifying and forcing further indirect human changes to the carbon cycle as a consequence of various positive and negative feedbacks .

  7. Doubly labeled water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubly_labeled_water

    In practice, doses of doubly labeled water for metabolic work are prepared by simply mixing a dose of deuterium oxide (heavy water) (90 to 99%) with a second dose of H 2 18 O, which is water which has been separately enriched with 18 O (though usually not to a high level, since doing this would be expensive, and unnecessary for this use), but ...

  8. Mimeograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mimeograph

    The process was called mimeography, and a copy made by the process was a mimeograph. Mimeographs, along with spirit duplicators and hectographs, were common technologies for printing small quantities of a document, as in office work, classroom materials, and church bulletins.

  9. Outline of air pollution dispersion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_air_pollution...

    There are five types of air pollution dispersion models, as well as some hybrids of the five types: [1] Box model – The box model is the simplest of the model types. [2] It assumes the airshed (i.e., a given volume of atmospheric air in a geographical region) is in the shape of a box.
