Earth cooling? The Southern Ocean is 'absorbing carbon' on a large scale, and the annual carbon absorption is 530 million tons more than the release

As the temperature rises, many residents are increasingly dependent on air conditioners. And with the development of the times, cars are also an essential travel tool for every household, and because of this, carbon dioxide emissions are becoming more and more serious. Forests are also shrinking in many areas, and the planet will continue to warm and get warmer. This will be everyone's nightmare.

Moreover, the sunspot activity has entered a trough period, the solar activity is inactive, the light and heat reaching the ground is greatly reduced, and the earth will enter a 30-year cold ice period in the future to achieve a "great cooling".

In short, relevant theoretical research and data results are supported. Scientists have discovered strange things during their research. Lan Bingyang is absorbing carbon, which makes many readers question, why is it absorbing carbon? With this question in mind, let's move on.

One of the important reasons for global warming is that the emission concentration of carbon dioxide is too high. The natural carbon absorption of the earth means that the climate will change. The natural carbon absorption of the Southern Ocean means that the carbon dioxide is gradually decreasing, and the global temperature will also change. The lowering seems to be a good thing, but it is not.

So what is going on here? Will the earth be frozen? Is global warming a myth?

According to relevant studies, it is concluded that the Antarctic Ocean is absorbing carbon frantically, and the annual carbon absorption is about 530 million tons more than the release, which is equivalent to a "carbon sink".

The three observational studies and data collection of atmospheric carbon dioxide by aircraft from 2009 to 2018 show that the annual net carbon flux in the ocean south of latitude 45 south is relatively large. .

Scientist Matthew Long said this shows that the Southern Ocean continues to absorb carbon dioxide.

Natural carbon sinks can play a role in buffering global warming. Atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations have an important impact on temperature changes, and the absorption of carbon dioxide means that global temperatures will gradually cool.

Some people will ask why the Southern Ocean can absorb a lot of carbon dioxide?

The total area of ​​the earth is about 570 million square kilometers, of which water accounts for about 71%, and these oceans are equivalent to huge "carbon dioxide reservoirs", which can absorb 25% of the total carbon dioxide produced by human burning fossil fuels and green forests, This ratio is not small. Compared with the "lungs of the earth", it still has a slight advantage.

In addition, the proportion of carbon dioxide absorbed by the Southern Ocean is as high as 40%, which is the largest "accretion trough" of greenhouse gases in the world. The reason why it can absorb carbon is mainly because of the prevailing westerly winds at sea all year round, so carbon dioxide is contained in the bag.

The Southern Ocean refers to the waters surrounding the Antarctic continent without the boundary of the northern land, including parts of the South Pacific, South Atlantic and South Indian Oceans, covering an area of ​​about 20.327 million square kilometers.

Because of the prevailing westerly winds at sea, it has the title of "Roaring Westerly Belt". The strong wind whips up waves, causing the sea surface to fluctuate constantly. Carbon dioxide is dissolved in the surface seawater, and the carbon dioxide in the water alone accounts for 9% of the total. After the seawater merged, a huge "funnel" was formed under the action of a vortex acting in a counterclockwise direction with a diameter of 100 km. The remaining carbon dioxide is transported northward to the subtropical sea area under the combined action of the South Ocean circulation and vortex, and finally absorbed by some phytoplankton in the deep sea.

Scientists say that seawater also releases carbon dioxide, but it is eventually absorbed, so the amount of carbon absorbed will not decrease.

A lot of greenhouse gases are absorbed, does it mean that global warming is a lie? Will the earth get colder?

Carbon dioxide is being absorbed in large quantities, so is the earth really cooling?

Although natural carbon absorption zones have appeared on the earth, this is not a good thing for scientists, but is more worried about global climate change.

From the current point of view, although carbon dioxide has been absorbed, it is obvious that the global temperature has not dropped significantly because of this. Take Chongqing as an example. There is no such thing as spring at all, and the situation of climate warming in some regions is still serious. For example, Kuwait and other regions continue to have high temperature weather of 50-70, while extremely cold regions also have a high temperature of 38. This has caused many glaciers to melt and sea levels to rise, making it impossible for many extremely cold animals to continue to survive.

Data show that in May 2021, the world's carbon dioxide concentration reached the highest level in history, and the temperature was about 1.09 degrees Celsius higher than that between 1850 and 1900.

The average temperature in China in 2021 will be 10.7, 1°C higher than in previous years, accompanied by extreme weather such as high temperature, floods, and cold currents. Last year, many areas suffered from flooding. It can be seen here that China's climate is very unstable. For a long time, It is extremely detrimental to people's lives.

Moreover, from the perspective of thermal preservation, the crazy carbon absorption of the ocean is not because the carbon content on the earth is greatly reduced, but the carbon content is too high, so the ocean adsorption capacity is becoming more and more obvious. .

In addition, China's population continues to increase, and human activities are more frequent, resulting in more obvious global warming.

The Australian fire accident, I believe many people still remember that the fire continued to burn for several months, and nearly 3 billion animals and plants were hit to extinction. The greenhouse gases produced during the burning and the subsequent losses were directly reflected in the temperature changes.

In addition, there are many factories in various regions of China. The price of industrial civilization is the environment. Human beings are producing carbon all the time. Reinforced concrete, exhaust gas emissions, unreasonable energy structure, forest destruction, etc., are one of the main culprits in the production of large amounts of greenhouse gases.

As the carbon absorption capacity of the Southern Ocean becomes stronger and stronger, it is very likely that there will be a "dramatic cooling" situation in the future, but this is not because the carbon content is low, but there will be more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and extreme abnormal weather will occur. probability will be higher. Global warming may not be a lie.
