A new study suggests that metals scattered about the deep ocean may be producing oxygen, a finding that could strengthen the case against controversial deep-sea mining. Scientists have long assumed ...
Aerobic respiration began hundreds of millions of years earlier than previously thought, a new study suggests.
"Dark oxygen" is being produced deep in the ocean, and scientists are baffled by the strange phenomenon, according to a new study. In science class, kids learn that plants need sunlight to do ...
A groundbreaking discovery has challenged the long-held belief that oxygen is produced solely by photosynthetic organisms. In their latest study, researchers have identified metallic minerals on the ...
Most people believe rainforests are the lungs of our planet, pumping out vast amounts of the oxygen we breathe. This compelling image has shaped environmental campaigns and political speeches for ...
