The ocean is one of the most biggest and exclusive gift to the mankind. It has been responsible to a quantum harmonizing of the ecosystem. Without ocean‚ the carbon dioxide would have clouded and generate a serious threat to the nearest sheet of atmosphere covering the planet. For humans and animals‚ it provides the needed unbeatable agent of our existence‚ oxygen. Foods in different forms have been stored in this giant earth occupier and life has been sustained in general through the ocean. It is

Introduction Over the last decade‚ there has been an increased focus on the impact of human activities on the planet and studying the potential impacts of ocean acidification (OA). Ocean acidification describes a change in the carbon chemistry of the ocean which has been a steadily emerging global environmental health concern. Oceans cover nearly 70 percent of the planet’s surface and play a crucial role in regulating atmospheric carbon dioxide through physical‚ chemical‚ and biological processes

Journey to the Ocean Floor Oceanography is a science that draws upon the methods and knowledge of geology‚ chemistry‚ physics‚ and biology to study the ocean. The Pacific Ocean is the largest and the deepest ocean. Most submersible dives follow a similar pattern‚ emphasizing bottom transecting‚ collecting and photographing specimens. To understand our ocean floor exploration‚ you must first know something about the ocean floor. Follow along below as I summarize the parts of the ocean floor.

I feel that Ocean Acidification is an issue that isn’t talked about enough and that people don’t really know about it or what to do about it. This article did a really good job of giving examples of Ocean acidification but it doesn’t do a very good job of telling us what we can do to prevent it. The article also did a very good job of informing us with facts about it. In this article‚ it tells us that by 2050 the ocean will have become much‚ much more acidic‚ and a lot of the fish will have either

Summary and Response to Ocean Acidification Article The National Geographic article “Ocean Acidification; Carbon Dioxide is Putting Shelled Animals at Risk‚” argues that the drop in surface pH could have a devastating effect on not only the organisms living in the ocean‚ but the environment that surrounds us. Research has shown that at least half of the carbon dioxide being emitted into the atmosphere has been absorbed by the oceans over time. This has benefited our environment because by
