BIOLOGY 1B Lecture Notes - Lecture 25: Estuary, Nitrogen Cycle, Cellular Respiration
Document Summary
->smaller patch has less niches, less resources for organisms to use. ->as crops got farther and farther from the source, they were not as thoroughly pollinated as others. ->as you get farther and farther away from the source population, rate of colonization decreases. ->as you get smaller patch, higher rate of extinction than large population. ->amount energy reflected by the ground is higher than amount heat absorbed from sun because of the backradiation from greenhouse gases. ->greenhouse gases in this class: carbon dioxide (co2), methane (ch4), nitrous oxide (n2o), water (h2o), ozone (o3-->potent greenhouse gas) ->conduction: earth is next to the atmosphere-->when two things are next to each other. ->when combined with transpiration from plants, that"s evapotranspiration. ->solar radiation that comes in is balanced by the radiation that is reflected back into atmosphere, heat given off by surface. ->heat going in is around the same as heat going out.
