  2. Marine biogeochemical cycles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_biogeochemical_cycles

    Water is the medium of the oceans, the medium which carries all the substances and elements involved in the marine biogeochemical cycles. Water as found in nature almost always includes dissolved substances, so water has been described as the "universal solvent" for its ability to dissolve so many substances.

  3. Biogeochemical cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biogeochemical_cycle

    [10] [11] [12] A key example is that of cultural eutrophication, where agricultural runoff leads to nitrogen and phosphorus enrichment of coastal ecosystems, greatly increasing productivity resulting in algal blooms, deoxygenation of the water column and seabed, and increased greenhouse gas emissions, [13] with direct local and global impacts ...

  4. Henry's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry's_law

    An example where Henry's law is at play is the depth-dependent dissolution of oxygen and nitrogen in the blood of underwater divers that changes during decompression, going to decompression sickness. An everyday example is carbonated soft drinks , which contain dissolved carbon dioxide.

  5. Nitrogen cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_cycle

    The nitrogen cycle is an important process in the ocean as well. While the overall cycle is similar, there are different players [42] and modes of transfer for nitrogen in the ocean. Nitrogen enters the water through the precipitation, runoff, or as N 2 from the atmosphere. Nitrogen cannot be utilized by phytoplankton as N

  6. Hydrothermal vent microbial communities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrothermal_vent...

    Deep ocean water contains the largest reservoir of nitrogen available to hydrothermal vents, with around 0.59 mM of dissolved nitrogen gas. [24] [25] Ammonium is the dominant species of dissolved inorganic nitrogen, and can be produced by water mass mixing below hydrothermal vents and discharged in vent fluids. [25]

    Add more corn starch or water if needed to reach the consistency shown in the video. Mix until smooth consistency is reached. Watch how it will form into a solid or melt like a liquid under ...

  8. Algal bloom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algal_bloom

    Cyanobacteria can fix nitrogen by accessing atmospheric nitrogen (N 2) that has been dissolved into water and transforming it into nitrogen accessible to other organisms. [26] This higher amount of nitrogen is then able to sustain large algae blooms in oligotrophic waters.

  9. Bjerrum plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bjerrum_plot

    Example Bjerrum plot: Change in carbonate system of seawater from ocean acidification.. A Bjerrum plot (named after Niels Bjerrum), sometimes also known as a Sillén diagram (after Lars Gunnar Sillén), or a Hägg diagram (after Gunnar Hägg) [1] is a graph of the concentrations of the different species of a polyprotic acid in a solution, as a function of pH, [2] when the solution is at ...
