CO2 into the atomosphere each year?
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!

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_forwardIn what ways are Ca and Si cycling in oceanwaters similar, and in what ways do they differ?How do the calcium and silica cycles couple to thecarbon cycle?arrow_forward

Carbon from acid rain gets trapped in the ocean, causing the pH of the ocean to decrease. More of the ocean floor becomes the home of plants as carbon dioxide levels increase. Carbon flakes fall from the atmosphere into the ocean, providing food for fish. The ocean absorbs excess carbon, so global warming has fewer consequences.
