1. How does the solubility of CO2 in water change with temperature? 2. It is possible that changes in ocean temperature might have led to changes in the absorption of CO2. Give one reason suggested by Sigman and Boyle (2000) why a change in tropical ocean temperature is a potentially significant mechanism for carbon sequestration, over polar ocean temperature. And give one reason why Sigman and Boyle (2000) suggested that polar ocean temperature might be a good candidate for carbon sequestration. 3. What are the three species of dissolved carbon, the sum of which we refer to as Dissolved norganic Carbon (DIC)? 4. What do we mean by the Redfield ratio?
