Study Assesses Impact of Climate Change on Silicate Carbon Weathering Sink
Written by AZoCleantechMay 17 2021
The global carbon cycle has been influenced by silicate carbon weathering sink (SCS) the net carbon sink for a period of more than millions of years. But the spatial pattern, magnitude, and evolution properties of global SCS are still not clear.

Under the guidance of Professor Xiaoyong Bai from the Institute of Geochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGCAS), a research group has estimated the magnitude and spatio-temporal distribution of global silicate rock weathering carbon sink flux (SCSF) for 1996–2017. They have also estimated the SCSF under two future greenhouse gas emission scenarios.
Researchers at China s Qingdao University have developed a new multi-modal image fusion method based on supervised deep learning. It enhances image clarity, reduces redundant image features and supports batch processing, improving the accuracy of medical diagnoses.
A medical researcher and professor who pleaded guilty to what prosecutors called a sophisticated scheme to transfer U.S.-backed research to China was sentenced Friday to 37 months in federal prison.
Amid the search for the origins of COVID-19, two of the Biden administration’s top doctors, Dr. Francis Collins and Dr. Anthony Fauci, are adamant the National Institutes of Health did not fund so-called gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
