The other greenhouse gases warming the planet While carbon dioxide, or CO2, is the best known greenhouse gas, several others, including methane and nitrous oxide, are also driving global warming and ...

Although nitrogen is very abundant in the atmosphere as dinitrogen gas (N 2), it is largely inaccessible ... fixing carbon dioxide to produce organic carbon, much like photosynthetic organisms ...

The atmosphere is mostly nitrogen (approximately 80%) and oxygen (approximately 20%). The remaining gases are found in much smaller proportions, such as carbon dioxide and water vapour.

But whether rising levels of climate-warming carbon dioxide gas are amplifying those nitrogen-induced biodiversity losses or dampening them remains unclear and is an understudied topic.

Air pollution is even more dangerous than previously thought, the World Health Organization (WHO) has warned, as it slashes maximum safe levels of key pollutants such nitrogen dioxide. An ...

Medical gases are occasionally valued for their ability to expel other gaseous fluids from a container or environment. Most often, nitrogen or carbon dioxide is introduced to a pharmaceutical product ...

the gas functions as the laser medium. Carbon dioxide lasers in particular are comprised of the following components: When electrical current is introduced to the gain medium, the nitrogen molecules ...

A new UN report highlights the urgent need to address nitrous oxide emissions, which are accelerating climate change, harming ...

While carbon dioxide, or CO2 ... (N2O), is the third major greenhouse gas and almost 300 times more potent than CO2. It is mainly emitted by synthetic nitrogen fertilisers and manure used in ...

Even though it is one of the most abundant elements (predominately in the form of nitrogen gas (N 2) in the Earth ... the resulting carbon dioxide emissions and pollution from burning these ...
