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

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.

pressure was intense. I needed to equalize; I pushed the air connector on BC-jacket to get a shot from the tank to counteract my sinking‚ letting the air out slowly to descend at a proper rate. I moved one step up‚ two steps down until I touched the ocean floor. The echoed sound of my breathing jolted out of sync with my movements. A thermocline from above and below traveled through my wetsuit. The crackling sound of the air bubbles amplified. The cold water filled to my shoulders and knees. My heart

A lake is a body of relatively still water of considerable size‚ localized in a basin‚ that is surrounded by land apart from a river‚ stream‚ or other form of moving water that serves to feed or drain the lake. Lakes are inland and not part of the ocean and therefore are distinct from lagoons‚ and are larger and deeper thanponds.[1][2] Lakes can be contrasted with rivers or streams‚ which are usually flowing. However most lakes are fed and drained by rivers and streams.Natural lakes are generally

Ocean acidification is the ongoing decrease in the pH of the Earth’s oceans‚ caused by carbon dioxide from the atmosphere‚ Seawater is slightly basic (meaning pH > 7)‚ and the process is a shift towards pH-neutral conditions rather than a transition to acidic conditions (pH < 7). Ocean alkalinity is not changed by the process‚ or may increase over long time periods due to carbonate dissolution. An estimated 30–40% of the carbon dioxide from human activity released into the atmosphere dissolves into

Plastic in the Ocean More than 200 animal species are dying everyday because they are consuming plastic in the ocean. This paper will discuss the environmental issue of polluted oceans‚ the causes‚ and possible solutions. The current environmental issue is littering in the ocean. Everyday hundreds‚ thousands‚ and even millions of trash is dumped into the ocean. Hundreds of marine species eat large amounts of plastic debris. “Yet the question is why so many species from the tiniest zooplankton to

in the middle of the contract or if the labor cost details are not included. The contract specifies that Rich Manufacturing Company will pay Bhagat’s production costs but the particulars are left unspoken. Gina can contest the price increase if the contract does not include specific price increases with labor and should because her company’s profit is now in jeopardy. Rich Manufacturing Company could be paying an additional $150‚000 to $300‚000 more than normal with this labor cost increase. Questions
