Methane gas leak in Antarctica, its impact worrying: Scientists

New delhi date. 24 July 2020, Friday

The unfortunate news is coming from Antarctica. In which scientists have obtained information about the now leaking methane gas from its ocean surface. No one has been able to estimate why and how methane leaked into the Antarctic seabed. Antarctica's sea surface contains large amounts of methane gas, which has been linked to rising ocean temperatures. Which scientists have said is very worrying. However, the location of the leak is shown in Ross C. The spot was first discovered in 2011, then in 2016 scientists focused on the area for research and have been monitoring the situation there ever since.

Andrew Thurber, the study's lead researcher, said leakage alone was not a concern. There is another concern. In fact, even the microbes found here are describing the deteriorating situation here.

Any such unforeseen change is usually seen in connection with climate change. The biggest reason for this is the emission of harmful gases and this has had a very bad effect on the nature and marine life of the oceans. Thurber considers this discovery to be a natural laboratory that will come in handy in further research. The leak is a little ahead of an active volcano but they do not agree that the leak may have been caused by a volcano.

According to scientists, the sea level has risen due to large emissions of methane. This could worsen the situation on the beach in the near future. The absence of gas consuming germs here could also lead to future gas leakage into the atmosphere. In the discovery, Thurber also claimed that the micro-organisms living there were also being affected. He estimates that the situation in Antarctica could worsen in the next 10 years. This is not the first time that methane leak information has been obtained. The first such leak was reported in South Georgia in 2014, the first case of methane leakage in the South Ocean. This type of leakage is worrisome as it is in a different marine area. Its effect on different life situations can be felt there.

All searches in the area were halted due to the Corona epidemic. There was a risk of spreading the infection to a remote area if the coronavirus continued to work during the time.

GMT : A wonderful invention to remove the confusion of railways, a village with the time of which the world sets its clock!

Image
History of Time Zone: The clock and our lives are completely intertwined. Ever wondered what would happen if all clocks in the world were set to the same time? So there will be a big mess right? Because the earth is so big that if there is morning in our country, then there will be night, somewhere evening, somewhere afternoon and somewhere different time on this earth. A single place was fixed for each day from which the whole world could set its clock time. Also know why the whole world time is set with GMT? What does GMT stand for Greenwich Mean Time? How was this time zone determined and how did the world determine its day before that? When did the clock start? Clocks were invented as early as the 16th century, and until the 18th century, time around the world was observed and measured based on the sun. But the world got time zones after the Industrial Revolution in Europe in the 18th century. In the early 19th century, local time in cities was determined by the sun. So, differ...

These countries are now farming in space, watch the video

Image Source: NASA New delhi date. 2 June 2023, Friday As the population increases in the country, the land for agriculture is getting less and less on earth. Recently, a report from the University of Colorado Boulder has come out, in which it has been said, how farms are rapidly being depleted around the world. Perhaps this is the reason why scientists from some of the world's major countries are turning to farming in space. There is a huge difference between the atmosphere of space and the atmosphere of Earth, but still there is cultivation. In fact, seeds sent into space remain in microgravity and are exposed to large amounts of cosmic rays, a process that greatly accelerates plant growth and transformation. This process is called space mutagenesis. Due to which the plant is ready to face any kind of situation. China is growing many crops China is growing a variety of crops in space. It contains Luan 502 wheat. These wheat seeds are now being brought from space and are als...

Sometimes you also look at the moon from the earth and think that what is really on the earth of the moon ?! Almost everyone has the curiosity to peer into the vast universe spread around us. The problem is that if we live in a city and look at the sky from Agashi, we will see nothing but a very bright star.

Like Telegram, Instagram also added a broadcast channel

Image
If you've been active on Instagram for a long time and follow a lot of people, you'll have experienced that a lot of content posted by those people is out of your sight - even if you want to see it. Like Facebook, what we see on Instagram is largely determined by algorithms. Those social sites themselves decide what we like to see. As a result, what we really want to see remains out of our sight. On the other hand, no algorithm works in services like WhatsApp or Telegram. For example, if we join a group in WhatsApp, whatever is posted in it will reach us. Telegram has channel facility. In that too whatever the creator of that channel posts will reach us. It's a different matter that we ourselves don't see everything posted in a WhatsApp group or a particular Telegram channel, but it does reach us. It often happens in Facebook and Instagram that not all the things we are interested in seeing reach us. This is just as bad for us as it is for content creators. Even if th...

Fear of a terrible solar storm could damage the Internet on Earth

Image
Half the country was in darkness for nine hours when a grid failed during Canada's 1989 hurricane. New York: A solar storm is a coronal mass emanating from the sun. It is quite dangerous and harmful. Scientists have recently warned that such a terrible storm will come in the future. This can have a profound effect on the Internet. This means that the entire world's Internet may be shut down or blocked for several days. The study was conducted on the Internet by Sangeeta Abdu Jyoti, a researcher at the University of California. He presented his study to scientists at the Sigcom 2021 Data Communication Congress last week. According to the study of music, there will be less impact on the internet system at the local level. The reason is that it runs primarily on fiber optics. Fiber optics are not directly affected by geomagnetic currents. But it could also have an impact on Internet cable spread around the world. This cable connects different countries of the world. Many count...

The winner of the Nobel Prize also believes that the Corona virus has originated in the lab

Image
Paris, France's Nobel Prize-winning scientist Luc Montagner believes that the coronary virus has become human in the lab, and that the Covid-19 pandemic is human-caused. This failure to try to make the AIDS HIV virus vaccine has led to the outbreak of a contagious virus. According to Lou Mategner, co-researcher for HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) in an interview to France's CNews Channel, the genome of the novel Corona virus is suspected to contain HIV, as well as some malaria. According to a report published in the Asia Times, the Chinese city of Wuhan's lab has been involved in corona virus research since 2000. Professor Look was awarded the Nobel Prize for recognizing the AIDS virus in medicine in 2008. It is worth mentioning that the Covid-19 virus originated in Wuhan's lab for many years. Not long ago, US President Donald Trump confirmed in a Focus News report that the novel corona virus had originated in China's Wuhan Institute of Virology lab. The r...
