Oceans and Acidification
| Challenge: | Environment | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | Yukon Stikine | | City: | Whitehorse, YT | | School: | Vanier Catholic Secondary | | Abstract: | I assessed the impact of the respiration of fish on the acidity of water, and the ability of plants to reduce this effect. My results revealed that fish alone would decrease acidity of water. The more plants present, the less the drop in pH. This concept has significant impact in an era of global warming and its secondary impacts on the world's Eco-systems. |
