The simple matter of learning about the earth’s formation has caused a gargantuan sense of interest in our research group. Our hypothesis consists of a higher concentration down the valley because of the glacial discharge and common human waste. In this study, we predict that the sedimentation of

The goal of the study was to determine what atmospheric variation, if any, was present between arctic microenvironments. It was predicted that colder, aquatic areas would have lower atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations since water can absorb carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. Field tests were
