🌍🪨Did you know some metamorphic #rocks, called metabasic rocks, are an enormous source of #nitrogen being carried deep into the Earth through subduction? A deep nitrogen (N) cycling study by Ananya Mallik, Anna Rebaza, Paul Kapp, Long Li, Yifan Du, Ahmed Al Shams, Emily Cooperdock unveiled these and more. Check out their dataset and article at doi.org/10.25422/azu.data.2350 and doi.org/10.1016/j.gca.2023.10.. Image: Stockcake #OpenData #OpenScience #Geosciences #UniversityofArizona

Dramatic rock formations frame a narrow channel of seafoam green water, revealing millions of years of geological history in one captivating scene.

#Whale pee moves vital nutrients thousands of miles
'We often think of plants as the lungs of the planet. Animals are the circulatory system.’
Some new research found that great #whales—including right whales, gray whales, and humpbacks—transport roughly 4,000 tons of #nitrogen to low-nutrient coastal areas in the tropics and subtropics every single year. Described as the “great whale pee funnel.”

4Z-0T, "Azot"

Azot is a chemical weapon, designed and experienced with by EvoWorks scientist in the "Chemical Sector". The laboratory he was made in, is located near Anchorage in Alaska.
Scientist experienced the use of nitrogen as some kind of weaponry. A cryo-blaster, freeze ray, etc. At last it was speculated what effects these nitrogen weapons had, when used by an artificial creature. That's how Azot was created.
turned out that liquid nitrogen would cause more trouble than originally thought. The joints and cyber optics constantly froze, That obviously had to be fixed somehow.
They used a special, secret metallic alloy, which was automatically emitting a high temperature. The scientist combined that artifical body with that alloy, coating important features with it.
This solution was actually a really great success. They infused the new weapons with his arms, while containing some small machine within his back, which would filter out the nitrogen in the air, making it be able to be used by him as ammunition for the experimental weapons.

I like to go in all kind of direction when creating characters. robots, demons, cultists, half-bloods, angels, etc. In his case, i wanted to make a chemical weapon. i don't know why, i was just always fascinated by chemistry lol

The picture was created with AI, all other stuff like lore and design idea came from my head.

#Agriculture is main cause of seasonal carbon ups and downs, study finds

"The study found that agricultural #nitrogen is responsible for 45% of the fluctuation increase in the annual carbon cycle. More carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and warmer temperatures contribute 40% and 18%, respectively."

Again:
"The research found that agricultural NITROGEN FERTILIZER is the biggest contributor."

go.tum.deWhy too much nitrogen is harmful to plantsEven for plants, there can be too much of a good thing. When nitrogen levels are too high, for example due to excessive fertilization, plants become more susceptible to certain diseases. However, the exact reasons are not yet fully understood. A group of researchers involving the Technical University of Munich (TUM) has now taken the first steps towards answering this question. They identified a small protein (peptide) that makes the plant resistant to certain bacteria. However, its effect is limited when there is a high nitrogen supply.
