What factors led to the commercial extinction of northern cod?

Biology
2 answers:
OleMash [197]4 years ago

Regulations safeguarding cod stocks did not evolve alongside the world's ability to harvest fish, and governments or international bodies sometimes assigned quotas based on economic factors rather than ecological ones. Although conservation became an increasing concern after the 1960s, officials consistently overestimated the size of cod stocks and, as a result, also overestimated the amount of cod fishers could harvest at sustainable levels.

How do tree rings and ice cores help scientists understand how earth has changed over time
Alex787 [66]
The study of tree rings is called dendrochronology. Trees produce a single growth ring each year and by studying the size and composition of each ring scientists can get information about the age of the tree, available nutrients in the area, and general climatic conditions. A relatively small ring may indicate a year when there was very little rainfall and a larger ring indicates favourable conditions for plant growth. 

Ice cores hold information on past global volcanic activity and past atmospheric conditions. Tiny bubbles in the ice cores give information on the concentration of gases in the atmosphere. Ice core data plays a key role in linking the increase in carbon dioxide concentrations to present day global warming.
