NASA: Increase in CO2 could indirectly lessen effects of global warming | The Capitol Column

NASA researchers say microscopic plants could serve as a solution to increasingly high rates of CO2, one of the key contributors to global warming. The team of scientists suggest that the large quantities of phytoplankton, recently discovered growing under sea ice, could pull in large amounts of the greenhouse gas, possibly curtailing any potential consequences of global warming.

...While the results of the study are likely alarming for climate scientists, the team noted that the presence of the plants could ultimately lead to a thriving fishing industry and additional benefits. Various species of phytoplankton form the crucial diet for many marine organisms and some whales. They make up the base of the entire Arctic food chain, supporting fish, walrus, seabirds, which feed the sparse populations in the region.The startling findings, made last July during a cruise of the NASA-sponsored ICESCAPE research project, overturn biological expectations about what might be driving the frigid ecosystem that surrounds the disintegrating ice pack every spring, say researchers. The results of the study could further complicate the international response to the threat poised by global warming, which has divided both the scientific community and the policy makers worldwide.
