Climate Change, and its effects on the Arctice Ecosystem

by Jessica Harrell

 

Submitted : Spring 2021


The objective is to theoretically, and mathematically determine the effects of global warming and climate change on the environment. This will be accomplished using two probably equations and determining the resulting rates of these formulas. Then analyzing the application of such equations, understanding their impacts, and looking on to the application within the given scenario of climate change. Many factors and questions are to be considered within this relatively ‘open-ended’ concept including: the exponential rate of sea algae growth due to warmer climates (ice melting), the effect of climate change in the arctic, a specific species’ breeding and familial dynamics, and the overall change in population genetics as compared to the previously stated exponential rates.
