Principle_3_6-8, CO2 is a major greehouse gas that retains heat in the atmosphere. The ocean absorbs about 50% of all CO2 added to the atmosphere., Water cycles between the atmosphere and ocean and plays a primary role in determining weather and climatic patterns. Most water in the atmosphere evaporated from the tropical ocean and is transported around the world., Energy is transferred and transformed in Earth's systems. Particles hit each other. (collide), Energy is transferred and transformed in Earth's systems. Heat transfers via conduction, radiation and convection., Uneven solar heating leads to differences in density in the ocean. Differences in density cause currents., The ocean is a major influence on weather and climate. The ocean controls weather and climate by dominating the Earth's energy, water, and carbon systems., Carbon has a role in affecting climate. CO2 is a major greehouse gas that retains heat in the atmosphere., Global ocean currents are the result of differences in water density, global wind, and Earth's rotation. Currents affect climate., Energy is transferred and transformed in Earth's systems. Matter is made of particles., Solar energy drives weather and climate processes. Uneven solar heating leads to differences in density in the ocean.
