pH
3
Each change in pH really means…
5
Water pH Lab
7
Look at your graph… What does it show you?
8
Seawater has a BUFFER! What is it? What causes it? How is seawater different from fresh water?
9
pH Buffer System
10
If acid is added (sewage output/volcanic activity) If alkaline solution is added
11
Photosynthesis?? Respiration??
12
Ocean Acidification
14
Ocean Acidification Lab & Case Study http://dataintheclassroom.noaa.gov/SitePa ges/oa/simulation#http://dataintheclassroom.noaa.gov/SitePa ges/oa/simulation# Bring a water sample tomorrow!
15
Videos!
17
Dissolved Oxygen (DO)
19
Seasonal DO variation –what could cause this variation?
20
Profile Graph
23
After The Storm Video 20 min
24
COMPARING WATER SAMPLES LAB How can we measure…. Salinity DO pH
25
CASE STUDY—THE DEAD ZONE Marine Issues--Homework
26
NOAA Dead Zone Video 4 min Eutrophication— Hypoxia— Dead Zone— Online Map Activity
27
What waterways connect to the Gulf? What smaller waterways connect to those? What natural processes could be contributing to water quality degradation and the development of the Gulf dead zone?
28
Make a Hypothesis What anthropogenic activities or materials could be contributing to water quality degradation and the development of the Gulf dead zone?

What anthropogenic activities or materials could be contributing to water quality degradation and the development of the Gulf dead zone?
31
Turbidity
32
Measuring turbidity Taking a Secchi Disk ReadingUsing a Turbidity Sensor
33
Turbidity
35
1. average salinity of seawater_____ 2. average pH of seawater________ 3. range of pH in seawater___ to ___ 4. instrument to test seawater salinity______ 5. type of bond between water molecules____ 6. type of molecule water is:___________ 7. area in the ocean with drastic change in salinity___________ 8. area in the ocean with drastic change in density____________ 9. What type of graphs do we use to show changes as you go down in the ocean?_______ 10. What units do we use for salinity?_____
36
Magic numbers!!!!!!!! Salinity –avg 35 ppt DO –avg 5 – 6 ppm (2ppm hypoxic; 0ppm anoxic) pH –avg 8 (7.5 – 8.4)
