The Earth hosts a vast network of ecosystems, from tiny tide pools to broad deserts to polar ice shelves. An ecosystem is defined as the habitat in which animals, plants, and microorganisms interact with non-living factors such as landscapes and temperature. Balanced ecosystems maintain a flow o...
This study used dual stable isotope analyses to identify the primary sources and pathways of nutrition and the trophic level for the main species in the Galveston Bay Estuary Ecosystem (GBEE) from five different sub-bays; Christmas, East, Galveston, Trinity, and West Bays. Additionally, an ...
The contamination of the air with toxic gases released from factories, emissions of automobiles, and many other human activities causes air pollution. This emission increases unwanted gaseous particles in the atmosphere. Air pollution leads to chronic disease and it also shows adverse effects on the ...
Explain how energy moves through an ecosystem. What features of the Hawaiian Islands are not explained by plate tectonics? What is the role of the ocean in global climate change? Identify and discuss the properties of water. Explain the role of dinoflagellates in the two very different phenomena...
