Since 1958, the levels of carbon dioxide in the earth's atmosphere increased
from about 315 parts per million to about 400 ppm in 2017. During this time,
the average global temperatures have increased as well.
True
False
The air in soils is normally higher in CO2 and lower in O2 than atmospheric air.
TRUE OR FALSE
The three images below are snapshots of the atmospheric CO2 concentration in May, July, and September of a year. To interpret the CO2 concentration:
blue/green/yellow indicates lower to medium CO2 concentrations and red/maroon/pink indicates medium-high to highest CO2 concentrations.
Question: Which of the phenomena described below best explains why CO2 concentrations are lowest in the summer when compared to the
spring or fallI/winter?
