Some figs of figs can change the odd carbon dioxide to the stone, which carbon has kept on the ground dead in the wood. It means figs of figs planted for forest or their fruit can offer additional climate benefits by carbon-sequestration process.

All the trees Remove Co2 From the air, and most carbon usually ended as structural molecules used to build plant, such as cellulose. Some trees, however, converted to co2 to a cristal compound called calcium oxalateWhat wood and ground bacteria can change calcium carbonate, the main ingredient of rocks such as limestone and bricks.

The carbon in the form of mineral can remain inside the ground higher than it can be with the organic matter of wood. Trees known to store carbon in this way include Iroko Tree (Militya mility), growing in tropical Africa and used for wood, but does not produce food.

Now, Mike Rowley At the University of Zurich in Switzerland and his colleagues with three types of wooden figs of Siruru County in Kenya can also make calcium carbonate from Calliuic Carbotald from Cal2.

“A large portion of the trees became calcium carbonate on the ground,” Rowley said. “We (also) also see the total root structures with a great deal of calcium carbonate on the ground where it is not necessary, in high concentration.”

The team first introduces fig types that make Calcium carbonate by squirting weak hydrochloric acids and searches bubbles – a sign of co2 released from calcium carbonate. Then they measured how far they have found Calcium carbonate around land and checks samples of trees to see where their trunks calcium carbonate is made.

“What a surprise, and I’m still kind of breaking from, so (Calcium carbonate) deeper in the wooden conference, the Czech Republic, this week’s cracks.”

Researchers need to do more work to calculate how much carbon shrubs keep, as well as what they need to water and how much they live in different climates. But if figs of figs can be included in future reforestation projects, then they can be a food source and carbon, as Rowley said.
