What things cause oxygen Depletion?
Yo mamma :D
How are the international efforts at reducing resource and ecological depletion similar?
International efforts at reducing resource and ecological depletion are similar. Resource depletion means reducing the resources used. Ecological depletion focuses on reducing waste for the environment. Both are for the better of the environment.
Which is a way thst groundwater depletion affects streams?
Water depletion would mean that streams would dry out, and rivers run low.
How does algae bloom affect dissolved oxygen?
Nutrients remove oxygen from water either by direct oxidation or through being consumed by plants or animals (bacteria). The potential for oxygen removal is measured by: BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) measures the amount of oxygen that bacteria can remove, COD (chemical oxygen demand) measures how much oxygen can be removed by chemical processes, and TOD (Total Oxygen Demand) is the total of all oxygen removed biochemically and chemically. Generally, colder water can hold more dissolved oxygen than warmer water. If you make a rough nomograph and plot the same amount of dissolved oxygen for a cold and warm temperature, you will see that the cold water is less saturated (can hold more oxygen) than the more saturated warm water. Nutrients effect oxygen levels indirectly in a process called eutrophication. If the nutrient happens to be a limiting nutrient (such as phosphate in lakes), then the carrying capacity of the photosynthetic organisms is raised. This allows for a population growth, commonly seen as algal blooms. The population of decomposers is then boosted too, since they feed (decay) on the phytoplankton/algae. As more and more organic material settles to the benthic zone, decomposers increase and need more oxygen for respiration. This results in oxygen depletion in the ecosystem, making life for marine animals such as fish difficult/impossible.
What cause will cause if lead to atmosphere?
depletion
What could cause oxygen depletion in a basement?
Breathing
What are the effects depletion of forests?
Alot of the mediceines that are found in the forest are goin to be destroyed.
What are consequences of depletion of forests?
Forests are the source of oxygen. Without oxygen there would be no ozone.

Is the rate of production of oxygen by photosynthesis in green plant suficient to balance the steady depletion of oxygen?
Yes
What is ozone depletioin?
Ozone depletion is depletion of ozone is in atmosphere. CFC gases which are pollutants are responsible for the depletion of ozone layer. CFC convert ozone to oxygen and make it useless for the absorption of UV radiation.
What is an ozone depletion?
Ozone depletion is the destroying of ozone molecules. These molecules are three atom. All the atons are of oxygen gas.
What is ozone depiction?
I think the question says ozone depletion. Ozone depletion is the destruction of ozone molecules. These molecules are made of oxygen. O3 is the chemical formula.
What contributes to ozone depletion?
CFC gases which are pollutants are responsible for the depletion of ozone layer. CFC convert ozone to oxygen and make it useless for the absorption of UV radiation.
What does cfc's do to the ozone molecules?
CFCs convert ozone to oxygen. They are responsible for ozone layer depletion.
Is ozone depletion a result of the interaction of Chlorine ions and CFCs?
no, the interaction is of chlorine ions and oxygen
How does ozone decompose?
Ozone on reaction with CFC gases decomposes into oxygen. It is responsible for ozone layer depletion.
