Photosynthesis is increasing globally

A new study shows that photosynthesis has increased rapidly throughout the past 200 years.

Accordingly, all the life of plants and plants depends on photosynthesis, converting sunlight into living energy, especially the leaves.

And recently, scientist Elliott Campbell said, it is human activity that accelerates photosynthesis in plants rapidly. And there are also other negative activities that directly or indirectly restrain this process.

Elliot Campbell, professor of environmental engineering at the University of California, said: " Previous studies have also mentioned this but only in small areas and areas. We are now on a wider range. We have set a scope to study this issue globally and hope to have the latest announcements in the near future . "

Campbell and colleagues estimate the global rate of photosynthesis has increased by 30% in the last 200 years. To this conclusion, the team measured carbonyl sulfide levels in the Arctic snow. Carbonyl sulfide is a variant of CO2 removed by plants from plants during photosynthesis. This explains that plants have continually increased their photosynthetic intensity to adapt to global warming. That means that CO2 levels have been more spoiled for photosynthetic plants and climate change will also make the crop longer, and plants are more susceptible to toxic nitrogen poisoning in plants.

The fact that plants increase photosynthesis will absorb more CO2, enhance the natural carbon storage system on Earth. However, the scientific group warns that the increase in CO2 due to human-induced greenhouse gas emissions is too large for plants to absorb during photosynthesis. So subjectivity based on plant systems is extremely dangerous.

Carnegie Science Institute Joe Berry, and co-author of the study, said the increase in photosynthesis of plants is not large enough to compensate for fossil fuel emissions. The amount of CO2 is increasing without braking in the atmosphere. Therefore, the most important thing is how to limit the reduction of CO2 levels in the atmosphere.

This latest research has just been published in the journal Nature.
