Scientists have been collecting atmospheric CO2 data for many years to monitor changes over time. Which of the following best de

scribes why an island location, such as the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii, is an ideal location to measure global CO2 concentrations? The island is also a dormant volcano, so there will be only anthropogenic atmospheric CO2 measured at the site. A The location is below the inversion layer, making it less prone to local effects from industry and transportation. B The location is far from any continent, providing atmospheric air samples that are less likely to be affected by industry and transportation. C The impact of primary producers in the surrounding Pacific Ocean is negligible, reducing the effect of photosynthesis and respiration on CO2 levels.65

Answer:

The correct option is;

B.  The location is far from any continent, providing atmospheric air samples that are less likely to be affected by industry and transportation.

Explanation:

Mauna Loa observatory in Hawaii has the longest running record of air CO₂ content in the world which shows that the CO₂ level is increasing annually as represented in the Keeling curve. The observatory is far remote from industrial centers with a good access to air unadulterated by local CO₂.

The correct option therefore, is that the location is far from any continent, providing atmospheric air samples that are less likely to be affected by industry and transportation.

What happens when money supply decreases?
lubasha [3.4K]
Therefore aggregate demand will increase. The reverse will be true when money supply decreases. That is a decrease in the money supply will lead to a decrease in the amount of money that people and firms will hold and as a result they will spend less.

37. Currently, rooftop solar panels produce only a fraction of the electricity used in the buildings on which they are installed
rewona [7]

Installing active solar energy systems on all available, unshaded rooftop

space and positioning them to face south.

<h3>What is a Solar system?</h3>

A solar system usually comprises of panels which help to collect solar

energy from the Sun and convert them to other forms of energy such as:

  • Heat energy.
  • Electrical energy.

The Passive system optimizes the use of heat or light directly from the sun

while the active systems converts the sun's energy into a more usable form

such as electricity. It is also best to position the panels to face south  

because the Sun is found at this region thereby encouraging maximum

trapping of solar energy.
