This bacterium can reduce the level of carbon dioxide in water.
Research staff from the University of Krusse located in the South of Denmark, discovered the secret of the functioning of marine bacteria, which can stop the problem of global warming.
This knowledge will be indispensable helpers of climate scientists. A group of scientists headed by marine biologist Bo Thamdrup conducted research during which they studied areas of the oceans that are oxygen-poor. In such areas the above-mentioned marine bacterium, regulating the levels of oxygen, helps maintain the life of the inhabitants.
As explained by the team member biologist Jens Wurgler-Hansen, the importance of this discovery is that it gives the opportunity to look at the nitrogen cycle and the oxygen in the marine environment and its relationship with climate change on a global scale from a different angle.
This bacterium can reduce the level of carbon dioxide in water, and a detailed analysis of the mechanism of this phenomenon can help at least a little to stop the process of global warming.
