Many people are not familiar with the Arctic Clouds most especially if they are not an environmentalist or a science geek person. Recent studies done by scientists in the Arctic region revealed how the said cloud formation and surprisingly bird poop help the current battle to climate change.
For the past years, planet Earth has been fighting the biggest battle of recent times, climate change. Studies show that it has been global concern that has affected the entire environment nowadays. One part of the world where global warming has great effects is the Arctic region and it can be seen through the Arctic clouds in the area.
There is something in the Arctic clouds that appears to give some indication how climate change is changing the environment and situation of the planet. Now, scientists and environment experts are closely studying the said cloud formation and how bird poops helping to slow the effects of global warming.
According to Phys.Org, Arctic clouds play a key role on temperature changes in the Arctic region and coincidentally how it decrease the negative effects of global warming in the area. Data coming from three Arctic sites shows the connection of temperature, water vapor and clouds protects the Earth from the massive effect of climate change if relative humidity doesn't vary.
Recent studies revealed the insulating behavior of the Arctic clouds differ from the different region of the Earth and the outcome may have a vital effect on how these clouds will protect and cool the planet. And the data gathered will give scientists and environmentalists a better understanding on the temperature and humidity variation to predict and prepare people on the climate change impact.
Seeker also reported that studies on bird poop say that it has the power to change and increase the presence of Arctic clouds in the Arctic region that consequently helps slows down the effect of climate change. Arctic terns and other seabirds who relatively visited the region regularly produce poops that help cool the Arctic based on the said analysis.
Results show that seabird colonies producing bird poop release atmospheric ammonia that when clustered together with other gasses such as sulfuric acid and water vapor will create the Arctic clouds in the process. And since the Earth have been battling climate change for several years, the findings is a big welcome development for humanity that scientist and environment experts must further expound.
