A doubling of atmospheric CO2 could significantly increase the Earth's average temperature by 7 to 14 degrees Celsius, according to a study led by researchers from the Royal Netherlands Institute for Marine Research (NIOZ) and the universities of Utrecht and Bristol.<\/p>\n
These findings contrast sharply with the 2.3 to 4.5 degrees predicted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).<\/p>\n
An invaluable resource for study<\/strong><\/p>\n To collect the data, the scientists used a 45-year-old drill core from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. The core has preserved organic matter due to the lack of oxygen, making it an invaluable resource for the study of historical climate conditions.<\/p>\n "I realized that this core is very attractive to researchers because the ocean floor at this location has had oxygen-free conditions for many millions of years," said lead author Jaap Sinninghe Damst\u00e9, a scientist at NIOZ and professor of organic geochemistry at Utrecht.
