EARTH SCIENCE B STUDY GUIDE My name Craig Belnap Semester Earth science B MODULE SIX QUESTION ANSWER 6.1 Coastal Pollution 1. What are the consequences of coastal pollution? Unsafe environment for humans and wildlife‚ it can also kill fish that many use as a source of income. 2. What are the sources of coastal pollution? Agricultural‚ municipal‚ and industrial run off. Oil spills and waste that is dumped directly into the ocean. 3. What sequence of events causes a dead zone? Fertilizers

warming. Carbon dioxide‚ during the burning process‚ creates a layer in the atmosphere which stops the heat from escaping into the space. When the heat can’t escape it comes back to the earth and causes warming that leads to melting of ice caps and as result of it the sea level may raise and some part of the land such as Japan or California can be flooded. Another problem that we have to face with is the size of ozone layer. The ozone layer that protects the Earth’s surface from harmful ultraviolet

Antarctica can be seen as the world’s largest laboratory. Science is one of the most important reasons as to why we venture into this barren desert‚ and we have made and continue to make important scientific discoveries in the Antarctic. We have made discoveries like: How the atmosphere and the oceans ‘work’ and how they are linked‚ how much Antarctica has moved etc. Old explorers like made the first journeys across the vast continent and became ingrained into history books for doing so.

harmful to living organisms and is only partially absorbed by the ozone layer of lower stratosphere(6). And due to ozone depletion in the recent decades‚ more UVB radiation reaches the surface of the Earth and hence able to penetrate through sea at a greater depth‚ causing detrimental damages to marine life(1‚8). UVB radiation forms 1.5% of the solar irradiance energy(6). It is undetectable by human eyes and is found

Chemistry Ozone Depletion Ozone depletion describes two distinct but related phenomena observed since the late 1970s: a steady decline of about 4% per decade in the total volume of ozone in Earth’s stratosphere (the ozone layer)‚ and a much larger springtime decrease in stratospheric ozone over Earth’s polar regions. The latter phenomenon is referred to as theozone hole. In addition to these well-known stratospheric phenomena‚ there are also springtime polartropospheric ozone depletion events. The

infrastructural development progressing at a rapid rate‚ some harmful chemicals that are produced from science and technological equipment are disposed in the environment. Due to the subsequent increase in the amount of these chemicals in the atmosphere‚ the Ozone layer that prevents harmful particles from entering into the earth atmosphere gets depleted causing those harmful particles to enter into the earth atmosphere. Due to this‚ the earth’s environment is disturbed‚ which‚ in time‚ results in very high temperature

levels of each of these in the atmosphere are measured using the parts per million (ppm) index. Criteria pollutants These air pollutants are the most closely regulated around the world. They include: carbon monoxide; lead; nitrogen oxide; particles; ozone; and sulphur dioxide. In Australia‚ the two criteria pollutants of greatest concern are

Not many people know about Green Chemistry. Yet if we had know about Green Chemistry back around 1951‚ when the world began to develop it’s industries - such as farming‚ after World War II we wouldn’t now be battling things such as damage to the ozone layer‚ diseases and harm to the environment‚ caused by chemical pesticides and dumping of chemicals into our oceans and other waterways. Not enough people realise the importance of chemicals and green chemistry in everyday life. Most people think of
