Lakes do a bit more than hold water. They tend to release carbon into the air rather than letting it flow downstream. #carboncycle
Lakes aren't just storing water—they're changing the carbon cycle
Lakes may look like picturesque stopping points along a river or stream, but they can have a big influence on what happens to carbon as it moves through a landscape. New research suggests that the more lake-rich a network of streams is, the more carbon is released into the atmosphere rather than carried downstream.

🌿 An important finding from @leedsleaf.bsky.social tropical forests may recover carbon storage more slowly than expected after logging.

🔎 Follow @forestryjfr.bsky.social for forest ecology and restoration research.

#JFR #ForestRestoration #CarbonCycle #TropicalForests #ForestEcology 🍁
Recovery in logged forests may be much slower than previously assumed!

Despite common expectations that logged tropical forests absorb large amounts of carbon as trees regrow, new research led by @amybenno.bsky.social suggests this may not be the case for some.

🌊 A hidden ocean carbon store

Checking 70,668 ocean profiles worldwide, scientists found thin particle layers in 9% of them, most common in low oxygen zones, where they hold 16% of the deep carbon. Elsewhere, the cause is unknown.
