Ocean Acidification What is ocean acidification? (OA) A reduction in ocean pH due to the uptake of anthropogenic CO2. The Amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is increasing We are at the highest level of CO2 we?ve had in a millions years Debates about the effects of high CO2 levels and its cause Not open for discussion The Chemistry of the ocean is dependent on the chemistry of the atmosphere Natural process If you increase CO2 in atmosphere by diffusion you increase the CO2 levels in the ocean What we do to the atmosphere, we also do to the ocean OCEAN IS NOT AN ACID Ocean is becoming less basic, not more acidic Chemistry of it: CO2 reacts with H20 HCO3 (bicarbonate) H (hydrogen) CO2 + H2O => HCO3 + H Water becomes more acidic the more CO2 it contains

Ecology -The study of how organisms interact with one another and their physical environment of matter and energy. All living organisms are composed of cells. Cell-the smallest and most fundamental structural and functional units of life. The idea that all living things are composed of cells is called cell theory. Organisms can be classified as either eukaryotes or prokaryotes A eukaryote is a cell surrounded by a membrane that has a distinct nucleus and other internal parts called organelles. A prokaryote is a cell surrounded by a membrane but has no distinct nucleus or organelles surrounded by membranes. For a group of sexually reproducing organisms a species is a set of individuals that can mate and produce fertile offspring.

APES CH.3 CYCLES Biogeochemical/nutrient cycles- the elements and compounds that make up nutrients move continually through air, water, soil, rock, and living organisms within ecosystems as well as in the biosphere. Driven directly/indirectly by solar energy and gravity are the hydrologic, carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur cycles.
