a very special role in the carbon cycle. What is that role?
(b) Why are there annual oscillations in atmospheric carbon levels?

(d) Why are the fossil fuels already burned to date, as well as those being presently burned, predicted to impact climate for hundreds to thousands of years into the future?

Answer:

As explained below.

Explanation:

  • The ocean is considered to be the carbon sinks of the world and thus all the carbon there exists is absorbed by these in the formed of dissolved salts and content and this plays a crucial role in the cyclic nature of carbon.
  • The three annual oscillations in carbon levels are land, at and air this is due to the impact of natural fluxes. The main components being the atmosphere, biosphere and interior parts of the earth. What is known as deep carbon cycling.
  • These re necessary as the amount of carbon which is stored in the earth gets consumed and again produced and being a gaseous medium it's not stable in nature.
  • The fossil fuels that have already been burned are totally exhausted as the form of crude oil and coal. They have been burning on for centuries and have been used in lots of production processes like that manufacturing, To date, the fossil fuel has been depleted and the predicted impact is catastrophic depletion of ozone and rise of another global cooling taking place.

1. Which of the following explains why Earth has seasons?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

B. The Earth is tilted relative to the ecliptic

Explanation:

  • Its due to the earth has an axial tilt of 23.5 degrees which is an inclined motion, relative to the orbital plane of rotation. This is the angle of obliquity of the earth from its center.
  • For this reason, the earth has solstice in summer, winter, vernal and equinoxes and owning to the fact that the continents in the north have winter in the Northern hemisphere and continents in the south have summer.
  • Without this tilt, the earth would have climatic extremes. Day and night time of the earth are also influenced by the same rotational motion.

Why was the concern of global warming replaced with the concern of global cooling?
MAVERICK [17]
The idea of global cooling gained popularity about during the 1970s, <span>“There are ominous signs that the earth’s weather patterns have begun to change dramatically,” </span>Newsweek reported in 1975. At the time the highly influential source convinced <span>“drastic decline in food production.”, at that time climate scientists were convinced that a ice age was coming. Global temperatures falling between 1940 to 1975 drove the concern of global cooling, little did they know it was only a temporary fall of temperature. 
That's as much as I know, hope it helped! :)</span>
