Kristina Matthews Environmental Science – EVS 1001 2 4/23/13 Week 2 Individual Work There are human impacts that deal with four chemical cycles. The first cycle is to do with carbon. The second is to do with phosphorus. The third cycle is nitrogen. And the fourth cycle is sulfur. We will look at each one and how they impact humans and examples. Carbon effects human impact. “Human intrusion into the carbon cycle is significant. As we will see shortly‚ we are diverting (or removing) 40 % of

Environmental Science and Human Population Worksheet 1. What would you include in a brief summary on the history of the modern environmental movement‚ from the 1960s to the present? Since 1960 to present it seems our Earth has been increasing in population faster than in prior years although it seems to have a steady flow it still increasing rapidly compared to the 1800’s or so. But since then we have also seen changes to our technology which has had a great impact on our ecosystem for

Within the past two centuries‚ the growing population has slowed down to an average of 1.7 percent per year. In contrast‚ the world’s food production has increased an average of 2.2

Troposhere: The layer of Earth’s atmosphere from the surface to about 10 miles in altitude. Tropopause: the boundary between the troposphere and the stratosphere aboce. Well mixed and is the site and source of our weather. Primary recipient of air pollutants. Stratosphere: The layer of Earth’s atmosphere between 10 miles and 40 miles above the surface that contains the ozone shield. Mixes only slowly; pollutants that enter it remain for long periods of time. Weather: The day-to-day variations

Eco Column Project Report VII. Conclusions a) In the aquatic chamber‚ the first week was a disaster. The plant life was sick‚ the snails were dying‚ and our fish died. As the project continued‚ it became healthier once we changed out the water. The first week the plant started flourishing‚ the snails and fish started to survive. In the decomposition chamber‚ it housed the entire time we started with leaves and some fruit which decomposed into the soil. When the project was over‚ it was
