| E-quations no. 1 |
|
Welcome to "E-quations" no 1. Here you will find science related to the ocean colour theme. We have five pieces of such "nitty gritty" information: |
|||
Waves: what they are, how they behave, and how to describe and measure them.
|
|
||
|
Electromagnetic radiation: about visible light and other types of electromagnetic waves.
|
|
||
|
Photosynthesis: how plants use light, water and carbon dioxide as building blocks for growth.
|
|
||
|
Carbon and nutrient cycles: Carbon and plant nutrients are cycled through the Earth system, and are closely linked.
|
|
||
|
Food webs: plankton are the "grass of the sea" and the basis for almost all marine food webs.
