The amount of carbon dioxide absorbed by plants is 20% more than we think

New modeling shows that plants can absorb 20% more carbon dioxide than previously thought.

According to Tekna technology and technology news service, data related to recent research on plants shows that the amount of carbon dioxide absorption in them is higher, according to these data, the effects of plants on climate change will also be greater.

An international team of scientists started research on climate change and the effects of various things on it. Realistic ecological modeling conducted by scientists at the University of Western Sydney, Australia, shows that the Earth’s vegetation absorbs 20% more human-produced carbon dioxide in the atmosphere than previously thought.

Ecological systems are used in mathematical models to better understand complex ecological processes. The order of how to change real ecosystems will be determined based on these modelings. This team of scientists believes that the current models made are not complicated and that the absorption of carbon dioxide by plants in the future is likely according to the calculations made. In the construction of this model, recent data and studies were used along with strong climate variables to determine the amount of CO2 that can be removed from the atmosphere. Calculated by plants.

In this modeling, aspects such as the efficiency of carbon dioxide and how it is carried out inside the leaf, as well as the adaptation of plants to temperature changes and the distribution of nutrients in the canopy of plants were considered.
