These are three consequences of thermal (heat) pollution on aquatic ecosystems. Water400 Points
20
What are “increased metabolic rates in fish,” “decrease in desirable (or native) fish,” and “less dissolved oxygen.” Water400 Points
21
Conventional electricity generating power plants are always built next to these. Water500 Points
22
What are “bodies of water?”
23
This happens to oxygen solubility with regard to water temperature. Potpourri 100 Points

What is “oxygen solubility decreases as temperatures increase.” Potpourri 100 Points
25
These ecosystem produce the most biomass and oxygen on the planet. Potpourri 200 Points
26
What are marine ecosystems? Potpourri 200 Points
27
Potpourri 300 Points This is the property of water that makes it a green house gas.
28
Potpourri 300 Points What is a high heat capacity (or high specific heat)?
29
This type of smog is at its highest concentrations in the late afternoon because it is formed in the presence of sunlight. Potpourri 400 Points
30
What is photochemical smog?
31
Potpourri 500 Points These climatic anomalies occur between every 2-5 years and produce changes of opposite direction in global temperature and precipitation patterns.
32
Potpourri 500 Points What are El Nino and La Nina events?
33
Nonrenewable Energy 100 Points This is the largest contributor to NOx emissions in the U.S.
34
Nonrenewable Energy 100 Points What are combustion engines and exhaust pies in vehicles?
35
Nonrenewable Energy 200 Points This is the main anthropogenic greenhouse gas produced in the United States from the combustion of fossil fuels.
36
Nonrenewable Energy 200 Points What is carbon dioxide?
37
Nonrenewable Energy 300 Points This is the main fuel used to generate electricity in the United States as well as the most abundant fossil fuel on the planet today.
38
Nonrenewable Energy 300 Points What is coal?
39
Nonrenewable Energy 400 Points Organizations such as this one take maximum advantage of developed nations dependence on imported oil.
40
Nonrenewable Energy 400 Points What is OPEC (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries)?
