impact of climate change (B Block) by Janice Chin https://padlet.com/janicechin/impactofclimatechange_2018b Made with a dash of wit en-us 2018-02-02 02:19:44 UTC 2018-08-21 09:48:19 UTC hello@padlet.com Galia, Tiffany janicechin https://padlet.com/janicechin/impactofclimatechange_2018b/wish/227345000 1. Coastal inundation

Causes Processes
- Global warming 
-> GHG released 
-> increase in temperatures 
-> melting of ice 
-> increase water level 
- Thermal expansion
Impacts
- Displacement of people from low lands (climate refugees)
- Shift biomes along altitude
- Less Usable land (for agriculture) salinisation
- Affect biodiversity (mangrove area)
Solutions
- decrease GHG release through altering human activity
- > decrease temperature
- stop ozone layer depletion
- dams to prevent water from overflowing

-Because of greenhouse gases increased in the atmosphere it leads to global warming. Because of global warming the glaciers in north and south poles start to melt. When they melt the sea water level increases. That lead to flooding of sea water to land. This can cause disappearing of small islands such as Maldives.


2. Ocean acidification
- Since some of the organisms may not be adapted to the increasing acidity of the water, hence they may die. As a result, this will disrupt the food chain in the water. 
4. Water Availability
- human extract fresh water underground --> disturb the circulation of water  --> cloud seeding
5. Loss of Biodiversity
- Due to the changing climate, many species may not be adapted to the rise in temperature. This may lead to the extinction of species. 
6. Damage of human health

- soil erosion = fail artgraculture
- mangrove 
2/ Ocean acidification
-Shell become thinner/ die
-lost of biodiversity and food chain is broken 

3/ Shift of biome
-severe climate change
-extintion of spieces
-food chain distory 

4/ Water availability 

5/ Loss of biodiversity
- reduce of population caused by climate change

6/ Damage of human health  ]]> 2018-02-02 02:23:19 UTC https://padlet.com/janicechin/impactofclimatechange_2018b/wish/227345232 Tunshore Flutura https://padlet.com/janicechin/impactofclimatechange_2018b/wish/227345379 Shifting biomes
- It would be possible to grow crops were it was previously impossible

-Storm surges and waves combine with high tide to cause coastal flooding
-Thermal expansion of oceans
-Polar ice caps melting

2. Ocean Acidification
-Increase in CO2 levels in the atmosphere
-Dissolve into the ocean
-Cause water to decrease in pH
-Affects coral and marine life due to their sensitivity to changes in their environment

3. Shift of biomes
-Distribution of biomes changes
-Due to population density changes, human migration, human activity, waste production, resources use
-Global warming 

4. Loss of Biodiversity
-Due to human development
-Production of waste
-Resource consumption; harnessing nature for human benefit

5. Water availability

* Water from melting icecaps leave coastal cities under water, climate refugees
* Damage to mangrove areas and soil
2. Ocean acidification
* CO2 dissolves in water, forms carbonic acid
* Fish and other aquatic organisms die
* Coral bleaching
* Destabilisation of food webs
3. Shift of biome
* Desertification
* Tundra and permafrost melt (releases CO2)
4. Water availability
* Water scarcity = conflict over resources
5. Loss of biodiversity
* Habitat loss leaves species at risk of extinction
* Species cannot adapt to changing climate fast enough
6. Damage of... human damage?]]> 2018-02-02 02:25:19 UTC https://padlet.com/janicechin/impactofclimatechange_2018b/wish/227345478 Lion drummers https://padlet.com/janicechin/impactofclimatechange_2018b/wish/227346086 2. Ocean acidification

Causes Processes
- H2O + CO2 
-> H2CO5 
-> H⁺ + H⁻CO3
(carbonic acid)
- CO2 increase 
- pollution
- temperature increase 
Impacts
- Coral bleaching
