Awesome
There is a textbook but I never used it. She knows her subject. There are 4 tests. The reviews help out. Your lowest quiz grade will be dropped. There is a group project at the end of semester which offers plenty of extra credit. The labs are easy. She is great but she is not lenient. Treat her with respect. There are no essays.

Abstract. Dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in the ocean is an important component of marine biogeochemical cycles and will be greatly altered as climate change persists. In this study a global oceanic carbon cycle model (HAMOCC 2.0) is used to address how mechanisms of oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) expansion respond to changes in CO2 radiative forcing. Atmospheric pCO2 is increased at a rate of 1 % annually and the model is stabilized at 2 ×
4 ×
6 ×
and 8 × preindustrial pCO2 levels. With an increase in CO2 radiative forcing
the OMZ in the Pacific Ocean is controlled largely by changes in particulate organic carbon (POC) export
resulting in increased remineralization and thus expanding the OMZs within the tropical Pacific Ocean. A potential decline in primary producers in the future as a result of environmental stress due to ocean warming and acidification could lead to a substantial reduction in POC export production
vertical POC flux
and thus increased DO concentration particularly in the Pacific Ocean at a depth of 600–800 m. In contrast
the vertical expansion of the OMZs within the Atlantic is linked to increases POC flux as well as changes in oxygen solubility with increasing seawater temperature. Changes in total organic carbon and increase sea surface temperature (SST) also lead to the formation of a new OMZ in the western subtropical Pacific Ocean. The development of the new OMZ results in dissolved oxygen concentration of ≤ 50 µmol kg−1 throughout the equatorial Pacific Ocean at 4 times preindustrial pCO2. Total ocean volume with dissolved oxygen concentrations of ≤ 50 µmol kg−1 increases by 2.4
and 10.5 % for the 2 ×
4 ×
and 8 × CO2 simulations
respectively.
