MAKE CONNECTIONS Describe the relationship between pH andacidity. (See Concept 3.3.) Overall, is the precipitation in this forest becomingmore acidic or less acidic?
MAKE CONNECTIONS In addition to causing climatechange, rising concentrations of CO2 are contributing toocean acidification (see Figure 3.12). Explain how oceanacidification can affect individual organisms, and howthat, in turn, can cause dramatic changes in ecologicalcommunities.

- Hello! I have an assignment this week but I don't understand how to create a controlled experiment and can't come up with any ideas yet. The question is the following: What do climate change and ocean acidification have in common? Design a controlled experiment to test the hypothesis that water acidification caused by acid rain would inhibit the growth of Acropora, a reef-building coral. Thanks in advance!arrow_forwardTest Your Understanding 10 The periodic warming of surface waters of the tropical eastern Pacific that alters both oceanic and atmospheric circulation patterns is known as (a) upwelling (b) prevailing wind (c) ocean current (d) El NioSouthern Oscillation (e) Coriolis effectarrow_forwardMAKE CONNECTIONS Many organisms living in estuaries experience freshwater and saltwater conditions eachday with the rising and falling of tides.

- How does your use of water change Earth systems?arrow_forwardCASE STUDY CONNECTION California’s governor has put you in charge of water policy for the state. Aquifers beneath the state have been overpumped, and many wells have run dry. Agricultural production in the state is down, and farmers are clamoring for you to do something. Meanwhile, more water is needed for burgeoning urban populations in cities such as Los Angeles and San Francisco. What policies would you consider to restore California’s water supply? Would you try to take steps to increase supply, decrease demand, or both? Explain why you would choose such policies.arrow_forwardScientists study bubbles trapped in ancient glacial ice todetermine how concentrations of nitrogen and carbondioxide gas have changed over time. However, bubblesin glacial ice cannot provide information about changesin phosphorus. Explain why air samples are not usefulfor this purpose, and propose an alternative method tostudy how the amount of phosphorus in a region haschanged over time.arrow_forward
