•Go to p.188
•Explain why the font is printed in red, and black.
•Identify 4 reservoirs, the flux and rates between those (pools)
•What is the difference between a source and a sink?
•Identify one terrestrial sink, other than fossil fuels, that stores carbon for thousands to millions of years.
•Explain how atmospheric carbon is incorporated into two oceanic sinks.
•A simple change in the flux rate between two reservoirs in a single nutrient cycle can potentially have major consequences for an ecosystem. Explain how this can be using at least 4 examples from the diagram on page 188.

Hint:Convert
Fremont Water DataThe shopping center’s parking lot is 200 meters long and 100 meters wide.
Fremont has an area of 10 km2
Impervious surfaces cover 20 percent of Fremont’s area.
The FWTP typically treats 5,000 m3 of domestic sewage per day.
The FWTP has the capacity to treat 10,000 m3 of combined sewage and storm water per day.
Calculate the volume of water (in m3) that runs off the Shoppes at Fremont parking lot after a 5 cm rainfall event. Assume that all the water that falls on the parking lot runs off. (2 points:1 point for a correct setup and 1 point for the correct answer)
Calculate the volume of storm-water runoff (in m3) generated in all of Fremont by the 5 cm rainfall event. Assume that only the impervious surfaces generate runoff.
