A recent study has revealed that there will be very little oxygen on the earth after billions of years from now. The research was conducted by Kazumi Ozaki and Christopher T. Reinhard and the results of the research were published in the Journal of Nature Geoscience entitled “The future longevity of the Earth’s oxygen atmosphere” on 1. March. The study predicts that in billions of years, as the solar system continues its life cycle, the sun heats up so much that the warmer feeling breaks down carbon two -ogsaid.
A little oxygen on the earth after a billion years
The researchers have found evidence with a model of biochemistry and climate to study the time frame of oxygen-rich conditions in the Earth’s atmosphere. In this new endeavor, the researchers tried to find the point of tension for life when the planet will not be able to support most plants and animals. The researchers created a simulation of the Earth that included variables that described the climate as well as geological and biological processes, and more importantly, the activity of the sun. “We find that the average future lifespan of the Earth’s atmosphere is 1.08 ± 0.14 billion years, with oxygen levels greater than 1% of the Earth’s atmosphere. right now, “the researchers said as they said in the study.

Hard for plants to survive
The simulation showed that as the sun gets warmer, 1 billion years from now, releasing more energy, carbon dioxide levels in the Earth ‘s atmosphere begin to fall because the gas absorbing the heat and breaking down. As a result of this phenomenon, the ozone layer is also burned away. According to scientists, the sun runs out of energy and destroys itself. It is likely to be more difficult for life forms to survive before then, as the sun warms. During that time, plants that release oxygen through photosynthesis will eventually be unable to survive which will eventually cut down oxygen levels. At the same time, the simulation showed increased levels of methane entering the atmosphere.
