NASA's 3D Presentation Proved How Carbon Dioxide In The Atmosphere Affects Climate Change

Carbon Dioxide considers as one of the reasons for climate change. NASA presented a 3D simulation of how CO2 interchanges through the atmosphere. The new visualization explained how carbon dioxide moves in a fluid dynamics around the globe.

Carbon is the major component of many minerals. It exists in various forms in the atmosphere. Carbon-based molecules are the main component of biological compounds. Carbon dioxide is responsible for the greenhouse effect. It is also one of the most important human-contributed greenhouse gasses. Carbon in the planet Earth's atmosphere has two main forms. These are carbon dioxide and methane which absorb and retain heat in the atmosphere and responsible for the greenhouse effect.

NASA has presented a 3D simulation of how CO2 moves through the atmosphere. The 3D explained the phenomena carbon flux. Carbon Flux is the exchange of carbon dioxide between the atmosphere, land, and ocean. NASA developed this concept of creating a presentation to provide an accurate portrait of what is happening in the atmosphere and depicting an accurate event on with the flux.

Lesley Ott of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center said in a statement that flux cannot be measured directly at high resolution. The carbon chain should be explained in a clearer diagram. Current carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere exceed measurements from the last 420,000 years. The levels of this gas are making crucial effects on the global climate. The NASA's OCO-2 satellite confirmed nearly 100,000 carbon dioxide measurements a day since in September 2014.

The understanding the sources of carbon pollution around the planet is significant for climate negotiations as well as regional plans for how to reduce it. Human activities over the past two centuries have significantly increased the amount of carbon dioxide which modifying the ecosystem. Currently, about half of the carbon dioxide released from the burning of fossil fuels remains in the atmosphere and it is not absorbed by vegetation and the ocean. It is important for us to humans to know what will come next for planet Earth's future.
