7. Food web of the Arctic ocean

8. Productivity of the Earth (Based on Chlorophyll Density) Red And Yellow areas have the highest productivity…so where are they located?

9. Rising CO2 and rising average global temperature

10. Melting Antarctic Ice due to increased water temperature

11. Net Primary Productivity
NPP = GPP - R
