The lung was inflated to higher mean volumes without having to use high peak airway pressures to maintain ventilation (oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal).
It makes nutrients available for growth of primary producers and it releases carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
Paralysis would also affect the respiratory system leading to elevated breathing rates and an increase in carbon dioxide expiration.
Implications of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration for rangelands.
The methane-oxidizing bacteria, which are able to reduce up to 70 % of the formed methane to carbon dioxide, conclude the methane cycle.
Specific examples would be reducing emissions of sulphur dioxide or reducing concentrations of lead in air or water.
Reduced oxygen and elevated carbon dioxide atmospheres can have an additive effect in some cases, depending on the concentrations used.
It is important to note that carbon market payments are generally based on tons of carbon dioxide equivalents.
