Global Study reveals a powerful hidden Way Trees are fighting Climate Change.
As trees photosynthesise, their leaves take up COâ‚‚ and lock it away as biomass in their trunks and branches providing a long-term store of carbon. But now, a large-scale study proves that there's another way that trees absorb greenhouse gases.

That's a real problem for Earth's climate because methane traps much more heat in the atmosphere than the equivalent amount of COâ‚‚. But while COâ‚‚ can last in the atmosphere for hundreds of years, methane has a lifetime of around ten years. This short atmospheric lifetime means that any changes to sources of methane or processes that remove methane from the atmosphere (known as methane sinks) can have rapid effects. If removal is enhanced, this can be a quick climate win helping to mitigate escalating climate change.

A team of ecologists and climate scientists have been studying the exchange of methane between tree bark, a surface that had previously been overlooked for its climate contribution and the atmosphere.

Scientists measured methane exchange on hundreds of tree stems in forests along a climate gradient spanning the Amazon and Panama, through to Sweden and forests near Oxford in the UK. She used a simple plastic chamber that wrapped around the tree trunk which was then connected to a laser-based methane analyser.
