Carbon dioxide is the most important greenhouse gas released to the atmosphere through human activities. It is also influenced by natural exchange with the land and ocean. This visualization provides a high-resolution, three-dimensional view of global atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations from September 1, 2014 to August 31, 2015. The visualization was created using output from…

While carbon capture helps, the slow pace of mixing shows why cutting emissions remains essential. We’re capturing carbon to fight climate change—but does that mean…

How Seasonal Shifts in the Northern High Latitudes Impact Global Carbon Levels and Climate Stability Climate change affects not only temperatures but also how ecosystems manage and cycle carbon dioxide (CO₂). Below we explore how rising temperatures and increasing CO₂ levels in Arctic and boreal regions—collectively…
