Marine ecosystems provide many important services, including jobs, food, transportation routes, recreational opportunities, health bene!ts, climate regulation, and cultural heritage that affect people, communities, and economies across the United States and internationally every day. There is a wealth of information documenting 72 OCEANS AND MARINE RESOURCES IN A CHANGING CLIMATE the strong linkages between the planet’s climate and ocean systems, as well as how changes in the climate system can produce changes in the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of ocean ecosystems on a variety of spatial and temporal scales. There is relatively little information on how these climate- driven changes in ocean ecosystems may have an impact on ocean services and uses, although it is predicted that ocean- dependent users, communities, and economies will likely become increasingly vulnerable in a changing climate. Based on our current understanding and future projections of the planet’s ocean systems, it is likely that marine ecosystems will con- tinue to be affected by anthropogenic- driven climate change into the future. This review describes how these impacts are set in motion through a suite of changes in ocean physical, chemical, and bio- logical components and processes in US waters and the signi!cant implications of these changes for ocean users and the communities and economies that depend on healthy oceans. US inter national partnerships, management challenges, opportunities, and knowledge gaps are also discussed. Effectively preparing for and responding to climate- driven changes in the ocean will require both limiting future change through reductions of greenhouse gases and adapting to the changes that we can no longer avoid. Introduction Marine ecosystems under US sovereignty, including areas under state and federal jurisdiction, gen- erally extend from the shore to 203 nautical miles seawards. The area under federal jurisdiction spans 3.4 million square nautical miles of ocean—an area referred to as the US Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The United States has the largest EEZ in the world, an area 1.7 times the land area of the continental United States and encompassing 11 different large marine ecosystems (LMEs). In 2004, the ocean- dependent economy generated $138 billion, or 1.2% of US gross domestic product (GDP) (Kildow et al. 2009). US ocean areas are also inherently connected with the nation’s vital coastal counties, which make up only 18% of the US land area but are home to 36% of the US popu- lation and account for over 40% of the national economic output (Kildow et al. 2009). These valuable marine ecosystems and the services they provide are increasingly at risk from a variety of pressures, including climate change and the related issue of ocean acidi!cation (Osgood 2008, Doney et al. 2012). These pressures are affecting ocean physical, chemical, and biological sys- tems, as well as human uses of these systems. Increasing levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) are one of the most serious problems because the effects are globally pervasive and irreversible on ecological timescales (National Research Council [NRC] 2011). The present CO2 concentration is the highest on record in at least the last 800,000 years (based on ice core data) (Lüthi et al. 2008). The two primary direct consequences of increased atmospheric CO2 in marine ecosystems are increased ocean temperatures (Bindoff et al. 2007) and higher acidity (Doney et al. 2009). Increased acidity of the ocean is directly related to oceanic absorption of CO2 from the atmosphere. The CO2 reacts with seawater to change the chemical environment of the oceans fundamentally (Feely et al. 2010). However, oceanic absorption of CO2 is dependent on water temperature and pH, and these mechanisms are likely to become less ef!cient as waters warm and pH decreases under future climate scenarios. Increasing temperatures produce a variety of ocean changes, including rising sea level, increased ocean strati!cation, decreased extent of sea ice, and altered patterns of ocean circulation, storms, precipitation, and freshwater

  • 42 the Reaction Between Zinc and Copper Oxide
    The reaction between zinc and copper oxide 42 In this experiment copper(II) oxide and zinc metal are reacted together. The reaction is exothermic and the products can be clearly identified. The experiment illustrates the difference in reactivity between zinc and copper and hence the idea of competition reactions. Lesson organisation This is best done as a demonstration. The reaction itself takes only three or four minutes but the class will almost certainly want to see it a second time. The necessary preparation can usefully be accompanied by a question and answer session. The zinc and copper oxide can be weighed out beforehand but should be mixed in front of the class. If a video camera is available, linked to a TV screen, the ‘action’ can be made more dramatic.

  • Changes: Physical Or Chemical? by Cindy Grigg
    Changes: Physical or Chemical? By Cindy Grigg 1 If you have studied atoms, you know that atoms are the building blocks of matter. Atoms are so small they cannot be seen with an ordinary microscope. Yet atoms make up everything in the universe. Atoms can combine with different atoms and make new substances. Substances can also break apart into separate atoms. These changes are called chemical changes or reactions. Chemical reactions happen when atoms gain, lose, or share electrons. What about when water freezes into ice? Do you think that's a chemical change? 2 When water freezes, it has changed states. You probably already know about the four states of matter. They are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Plasma is the fourth state of matter and is the most common state in the universe. However, it is rarely found on Earth. Plasma occurs as ball lightning and in stars. Water is a common substance that everyone has seen in its three states of matter. Water in its solid state is called ice. Water in the liquid state is just called water. Water as a gas is called water vapor. We can easily cause water to change states by changing its temperature. Water will freeze at 32 degrees Fahrenheit (0 Celsius). However, no chemical change has occurred. The atoms have not combined or broken apart to make a different substance; it is still water or H2O. When we heat water to a temperature of 212 F. or 100 Celsius, it will change into a gas called water vapor. Changes in states of matter are just physical changes.

  • 3.3 Definitions & Notes PHASE CHANGES
    3.3 Definitions & Notes PHASE CHANGES WORDS FOR DEFINITIONS YOU NEED ARE IN RED Phase Heat of Heat of Endothermic exothermic change fusion vaporization vaporization Evaporation Vapor condensation sublimation pressure deposition PHASE CHANGE: thermal energy (HEAT) is transferred to or from a substance that causes a change in phase. During a phase change the temperature of the substance does not change A phase change is reversible ( can be undone or the substance can be returned to its original state) Phase change is a physical change, NOT A CHEMICAL CHANGE. Why doesn’t temperature change during a phase change? The thermal energy is consumed while breaking bonds. EXAMPLES: Ice absorbs heat to melt to liquid water. Liquid water gives off heat and freezes. TRANSITION: when a substance is moving from one phase to another it is in TRANSITION As a verb “ A substance is transitioning” – changing. EXO THERMIC: when heat is given off (Ex means – outside) ENDO THERMRIC: when heat is taken in THE TRANSITIONS WE ALREADY KNOW TRANSITION Description The transition from solid to liquid Melting Heat is absorbed by substance or added to substance The transition from liquid to solid Freezing Heat is given off by substance or absorbed by the surroundings The transition from Gas to liquid Condensation Heat is given off by substance or absorbed by the surroundings The transition from Liquid to Gas AT the Boiling point Vaporization Heat is absorbed by substance or added to substance The transition from Liquid to Gas BELOW the Boiling Evaporation point Heat is absorbed by substance or added to substance THE TRANSITIONS WE MAY NOT ALREADY KNOW TRANSITION Description The transition from solid directly to gas SUBLIMATION Heat is absorbed by substance or added to substance Example?

  • It's Just a Phase: How Water Changes and Moves Around Our Planet
    What in the World is Matter? A house can be made of bricks, cement and wood, with glass windows, plastic on the electrical outlets, and so much more. Each of the materials used to make the house can also be used for building other things. Similarly, our bodies are built from elements, like calcium which makes our bones strong and iron, which makes our blood red. Iron is part of a molecule found in our blood that transports oxygen around our body. Iron is also the main element in steel, which is used to build your family car. Atoms make up everything living and non-living on Earth. All elements have different characteristics and they are the building blocks of matter, which includes everything that takes up space and has mass. Background Information Atoms are so tiny that a tower of 3,000,000 gold atoms would be only one millimetre high. They are so small that they cannot be seen with a regular microscope. Images of atoms can be captured indirectly with a scanning tunneling microscope, where a computer generates an image of the atom by scanning the material and making calculations. Atoms can join with other atoms to form molecules. If there is more than one kind of atom in a molecule, that substance is called a compound. Compounds generally have completely different characteristics than the individual elements which make it up. We can think of the Earth as a huge recycling plant where atoms and molecules are constantly rearranged to make different types of matter with completely different characteristics.

  • Distinguishing Between Physical & Chemical Changes
    Distinguishing Between Physical & Chemical Changes Submitted by: Iris Mudd, Science Meadowlark Middle School, Winston-Salem, NC Target Grade: 8th Grade Science Time Required: 120 minutes (2 Days) Standards Next Generation Science Standards: MS-PS1-2 Analyze and interpret data on the properties of substances before and after the substances interact to determine if a chemical reaction has occurred. Lesson Objectives Students should: Review physical and chemical properties of matter. Record observations of changes in matter. Use evidence to distinguish between physical and chemical changes. Central Focus This 2-day lesson should allow students to review their understanding of physical and chemical properties and emphasize the difference between physical and chemical changes. Specific real- world examples of changes in matter should allow students to apply criteria that are used to differentiate between the changes. Students should then have the opportunity to assess their own level of understanding. This lesson should leave students knowing that physical and chemical changes matter! Key Terms: react, reaction, change, phase, property, oxidation, flammable, element, reactivity Background Information Some changes in matter are physical while others are chemical. Physical changes do not involve chemical bonding that results in the formation of a completely new substance. Physical changes include changes in states of matter (melting, freezing, evaporation and condensation). In a physical change, the substances involved retain their original properties. A new substance is not formed. A physical change can be reversed. Chemical changes happen on a molecular level when two or more substances chemically bond together. When a chemical change occurs, atoms recombine to form new substances.

  • 4 Chemical and Physical Changes
    4 Chemical and Physical Changes Learning Objectives As you work through this chapter you will learn how to: < distinguish between kinetic and potential energy. < perform calculations involving energy units. < distinguish between exothermic and endothermic processes. < write balanced chemical equations. < classify chemical reactions. < determine whether an ionic compound is likely to dissolve in water. 4.1 Energy In newspaper articles, television reports, consumer products and even popular music you often encounter references to energy (“energy conservation”, “renewable energy sources”, “energy drinks”, “Taking all of my energy.”). This is not surprising since essentially all changes involve the transfer of energy. Energy (E) comes in many forms but there are two general types - kinetic energy (K.E.) and potential energy (P.E.). Kinetic energy is associated with the motion of an object. The faster the object moves the more kinetic energy it possesses. Potential energy is stored energy, or energy that results from an object’s position. For example, gravitational energy is the potential energy due to the force of gravity on an object; the stronger the gravitational attraction, the lower the potential energy. As a boulder is pushed up a hill it moves further away from the center of the earth and its potential energy increases as the force of gravity on the boulder decreases. In a similar way, energy can be stored in a spring as it is compressed. Where does this potential energy come from? 105 106 CHAPTER 4 CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL CHANGES Consider a child on a swing (Fig. 4.1).

  • A Demonstration of the Sublimation Process and Its Effect on Students’ Conceptual Understanding of the Sublimation Concept
    JOTCSC, Volume: 1, Issue: 2, Pages 67-74. RESEARCH ARTICLE http://dergipark.ulakbim.gov.tr/jotcsc A Demonstration of the Sublimation Process and its Effect on Students’ Conceptual Understanding of the Sublimation Concept Hacı Hasan Yolcu*1, Ahmet Gürses 2 1Kafkas University, Faculty of Education, Department of Chemistry Education, Kars-Turkey. 2Atatürk University, Faculty of Education, Department of Chemistry Education, Erzurum- Turkey. Abstract : In this paper, we present a demonstration for sublimation and we investigated the demonstration efficiency on students’ conceptual understanding of sublimation. Demonstration is considered an effective strategy to teach intangible concepts and a way to increase students’ enthusiasm for learning. We prepared a solution in which the surface tension was decreased using soap. This facilitated the formation of bubbles when dry ice was added. This provides a good environment for students to observation of sublimation. The demonstration improved students’ understanding of sublimation. Keywords: Phase transitions; sublimation; demonstration; chemistry.
