How dangerous is methane in Antarctica, just 10 meters below the surface?


New York, July 7, 2020, Saturday

It is well known that the ozone layer is weakening due to global warming in Antarctica but the problem of methane from the sea floor is also worrisome. Scientists believe that the ocean floor beneath Antarctica is rich in methane gas. Methane gas could enter the atmosphere due to global warming The recent rising tipping point has raised concerns. The use of methane at the bottom of Antarctica could greatly benefit the world's methane budget, but it is many times more dangerous than carbon dioxide if it starts to mix with the atmosphere. For some time now, methane gas has been leaching into the atmosphere due to agricultural sources, oil and natural gas sources, but the release of methane from the surface of Antarctica would be very harmful to the environment as the ocean has the largest reserves of methane.


In 2013, marine ecologist Andrew Thurber was surprised to see the first growing number of micro-organisms in the ice-mixed waters of the Ross Sea. Micro-organisms using methane were moving towards methane towards a spring of water. According to the research of the scientist Thurber, the accumulation of micro-organisms near the methane gas depot in Antarctica prevents methane from entering the atmosphere. So far, as much research has been done on the extraction of methane from natural sources of groundwater

It occurs only at depths of 200 to 300 meters and is exposed to a large number of microorganisms before it enters the air, but methane gas in Antarctica is only 10 meters deep and is likely to reach the surface quickly. Methane gas from the seas and oceans accounts for only 1% of global methane emissions. Antarctica is home to a quarter of the world's methane. Rose Sea has a gas leak every day. The research is published in the Journal of Proceedings of the Royal Society.

New Delhi, November 8, 2020, Monday The National Green Tribunal has banned the sale and detonation of fireworks from midnight on November 8 to November 30 to curb the spread of pollution in areas including Delhi NCR. With the onset of winter, the air becomes thinner and the level of pollution drops to lower air levels. In Punjab, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, straw is destroyed by burning of grain crops during the kharif season and its pollution also reaches Delhi. In addition, if fireworks are set off during the Diwali festival, the level of pollution is likely to exceed its danger mark. Second, the number of four-wheelers in Delhi is high during the festivals, making the air toxic. Fireworks have been banned this year as part of a precautionary measure against the Corona epidemic. According to the information received, the NGT ban also applies to cities and towns where air quality was not good during the month of November last year. There is a lot of research being done on the alte...

Big breakthrough for scientists: AI will recreate dreams and put them on paper

Image
Tokyo, dt. 11 March 2023 Saturday Scientists have achieved great success in scanning the brain with the help of AI. Now what our brain will see even in dreams, AI will recreate it and put it on paper. Researchers Shinji Nishimoto and Yu Takagi from Japan's Osaka University have converted brain activity into high-resolution images using AI. Previously, AI was used to create facial images. For the first time text to image generation stable diffusion AI algorithm has been used. Previously, AI algorithms used to decode brain scans depended only on data sets. What are the benefits? This allows people's dreams to be recorded. Learning about people with paralysis can help. This can provide insights into how animals and birds see and understand the world. Why is scanning done? When our brain sees an image, the temporal lobe records the information and the occipital lobe records the way of thinking. This information is recorded through a functional magnetic resonance imaging sca...

Donations and revenue to Wikipedia

Image
You may have noticed that for the last few times we have been appealing for donations rather than searching for anything on the ' free encyclopedia ' Wikipedia (such an appeal has been made before). According to Wikipedia, 5% of its readers do not donate to Wikipedia, making it difficult for Wikipedia to survive. Wikipedia says that if we get knowledge of only Rs. 2 from it, we should give it at least Rs. 3 in a minute's time (an average of Rs. 215 per person from Wikipedia in India is being donated). However, now a new source of revenue for Wikipedia is also emerging. Accordingly, whenever Wikipedia's content is displayed on Google's search engine, it will be paid by Google to Wikipedia. When we search for anything on Google, the relevant information is mostly extracted from Wikipedia and other sources and shown to us in the form of ' Knowledge Panel ' . Google will now pay for this information from Wikipedia. Google currently pays a number of ne...

Image
These Villagers create their own Sun: Sun is very necessary for the world. Life cannot be imagined without it. Even so, sunlight becomes very necessary to get some relief from the cold. Even if there is no sunlight for a long time, people get disturbed. Now when the people of one such village did not get sunlight, they solved this problem by making an artificial sun. This is the story of Vignella, a village between Switzerland and Italy, who created this artificial sun. Between November 11 and February 2 there is very little sunlight. How to make a fake sun? Vignella, a village with a population of 200 and nestled among the hills, does not see sunlight for two and a half months between November 11 and February 2. This trend has been going on for centuries. In the year 2005, with the help of the mayor of Vignella, Pierfranco Midali, around 1 crore rupees were collected. After this, a very large mirror was started on the hill in front of the village. How to get sunlight? By Novembe...
