One mystery in environmental science is the imbalance in the carbon dioxide budget. Considering only human activities, scientists have estimated that 1.6 billion metric tons of CO2 is added to the atmosphere every year because of deforestation (plants use CO2, and fewer plants will leave more CO2 in the atmosphere). Another 5.5 billion tons per year is put into the atmosphere because of burning fossil fuels. It is further...

Fig. 11-16 Partial pressure of CO2 in surface ocean water along the GEOSECS tracks (a) the Atlantic western basin data obtained between August 1972 and January 1973 (b) the central Pacific data along the 180° meridian from October 1973 to February 1974. The dashed line shows atmospheric CO2 for comparison. The equatorial areas of both oceans release CO2 to the atmosphere, whereas the northern North Atlantic is a strong sink for CO2.

The role of carbon dioxide in the Earth s radiation budget merits this interest in atmospheric CO2. There are, however, other changes of importance. The atmospheric methane concentration is increasing, probably as a result of increasing cattle populations, rice production, and biomass burning (Crutzen, 1983). Increasing methane concentrations are important because of the role it plays in stratospheric and...
