Why does carbon dioxide fluctuate in an oscillating pattern annually?
1 Answer
Northern hemisphere is rich in terms of terrestrial plants and land area.
Explanation:
In summer months (June, July, August) we see that atmospheric
Compared to the southern hemisphere, the northern one has higher land area and more plants. When it is winter (December, January, and February) photosynthesis is not remarkable because some plants (not pine trees (as far as I know) stop their photosynthesis activity.
That is why there is a little decrease in atmospheric carbondioxide in summer months compared to that in previous winter and spring.
That is why we need more trees and green plants to help us fighting against increase in greenhouse gases.
