Full Description

This exam concentrates on the role of algae in global carbon cycling, particularly their contribution to carbon sequestration and the implications for climate change.

Understanding algal contributions to the carbon cycle is increasingly important in the context of global climate change, as algal processes affect atmospheric CO2 levels and ecosystem functioning.

Candidates will articulate the mechanisms by which algae influence carbon cycling, analyze the implications of algal dynamics for climate change, and evaluate the potential for algal management in carbon reduction strategies.

Preparation should include familiarity with recent research findings related to algal carbon fixation and its global significance.

Sample Questions

  • How do algal blooms affect carbon cycling in aquatic ecosystems?
  • What potential strategies can be implemented to enhance algal contributions to carbon sequestration?
