Explained: Carbon Cycle & Feedback Loops | Ecology 101

One of the problems with #ClimateChange is that the worse it gets, the worse it gets. Humans have introduced a big change into the #CarbonCycle. Burning fossil fuels quickly moves large amounts of carbon that was previously stored underground into the atmosphere.
But healthy, diverse #ecosystems have the potential to absorb some of that excess carbon to help restabilize the climate. Let’s find out why… and how nature can help reverse this trend.
ABOUT THE CROWTHER LAB
We are an interdisciplinary research group, harnessing big data, machine learning and satellite imagery to build global ecosystem models. Our research aims to generate a fundamental and holistic understanding of global ecology in order to understand and address the global threats of biodiversity loss and climate change. Our lab is part of ETH Zürich, one of the world’s leading universities in Earth and Environmental Sciences.
