Many marine organisms depend on up welling to bring nutrients to the surface. How might El Nino affect a fisherman's way of life
?
1 answer:
During an El Nino, warm water gathers along the West coast of South America, so the nutrient rich water is no longer being upwelled. keeping in mind that cold water sinks and warm water rises, usually the warm water near coastal regions would not be full of nutrients compared to the cold water where the nutrients fall. therefore, more fish will be located or migrate to areas of this nutrient rich cold water instead. So, many fishermen would not have high yields of fish ultimately affecting their way of life and money. also a lot of these fish that remain at the surface would not be as healthy or nutrient rich.

Answer:
1: Burning of fossil fuel
2: Deforestation
3: Waste disposal in landfills
Explanation:
Burning of fossil fuel is the one of the primary cause of increased level of carbon dioxide in air. Deforestation refers to uncontrolled cutting down of trees which in turn increases the level of carbon dioxide in air. Plants are the natural resources that remove the carbon dioxide from air through the process of photosynthesis. Waste disposals in landfills emits methane which is one of the greenhouse gas.
