Proof of global warming

The amount of organic matter, dissolved in deep water parts in the Arctic Ocean, doubled after 12 years. According to the curator of the Ocean Ecology Laboratory, at the Institute of Marine and Oceanography Natalia Lalina, this is definitely a proof that allows the Earth to be heated up.

In the ' Polar Ocean Research ' meeting in Petersburg, Ms. Lalina said: ' From 1996 to 2008, the solubility in water of organic substances in the deep water of the Arctic Ocean in Russia has increased from 1.5 to 2 times '.

The permanent frost in Siberia begins to melt.

In the report, she and her colleagues compared the data on the amount of organic matter collected in a German scientists survey on the 1966 ' Stars ' pole and the survey of Russian scientist on the ship ' Fedorov Academician' in 2008. The researchers measured the content of organic substances including carbohydrates, lipids, proteins as well as chlorophyl and carotenoids (vegetable pigments) dissolved in water. of the Arctic Ocean.

Ms. Lalina commented that organic substances in the Arctic Ocean are basically accumulated due to wastewater from rivers flowing through the continent to the sea , the largest part of which is the wastewater of rivers in Siberia, a smaller part of the Atlantic came.

According to her, the main reason for increasing the amount of organic substances in the Arctic Ocean may be due to the melting of permanent ice in Siberia (one of the evidences of global warming on a large scale) and increase. the transfer of organic substances of rivers to the Arctic.
