  2. Blue bottle experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_bottle_experiment

    The color-change that occurs in the blue bottle experiment has features of a clock reaction, in which a visible change in the concentration of one or more reagents suddenly occurs upon the exhaustion of a limiting reagent. For example, the limiting reactant, oxygen, is consumed by another reactant, benzoin, with the help of safranin as a ...

  3. Hypoxia (environmental) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxia_(environmental)

    Global map of low and declining oxygen levels in the open ocean and coastal waters, 2009. [1] The map indicates coastal sites where anthropogenic nutrients have exacerbated or caused oxygen declines to <2 mg/L (<63 μmol/L) (red dots), as well as ocean oxygen minimum zones at 300 m (blue shaded regions).

  4. Reducing atmosphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reducing_atmosphere

    At high temperatures the carbon will bond with and remove the oxygen in the metal oxides used as colorants in the glazes. This loss of oxygen results in a change in the color of the glazes because it allows the metals in the glaze to be seen in an unoxidized form. A reduction atmosphere can also affect the color of the clay body.

  5. Great Oxidation Event - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Oxidation_Event

    The Great Oxidation Event (GOE) or Great Oxygenation Event, also called the Oxygen Catastrophe, Oxygen Revolution, or Oxygen Crisis, was a time interval during the Earth's Paleoproterozoic era when the Earth's atmosphere and shallow seas first experienced a rise in the concentration of free oxygen. [2]

  6. Anoxic waters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anoxic_waters

    For example, some organisms, such as primary producers, can adapt quickly and even thrive under anoxic conditions. However, most organisms are highly susceptible to slight changes in aquatic oxygen levels. When a respiring organism is presented with little to no oxygen, chances of survival decrease.

  7. Ocean deoxygenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_deoxygenation

    Global map of low and declining oxygen levels in coastal waters (mainly due to eutrophication) and in the open ocean (due to climate change).The map indicates coastal sites where oxygen levels have declined to less than 2 mg/L (red dots), as well as expanding ocean oxygen minimum zones at 300 metres (blue shaded regions).

  8. Here’s What Those Colored Circles on Food Packages Actually Mean

    The color of a packet of M&Ms, for example, can tell you whether they’re peanut, regular, crispy or caramel, while a yellow cap on a Coca-Cola bottle means something else entirely. And if you ...

  9. Geological history of oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geological_history_of_oxygen

    The Boring Billion ended during the Neoproterozoic period with a significant increase in photosynthetic activities, causing oxygen levels to rise 10- to 20-fold to about one-tenth of the modern level. This rise in oxygen concentration, known as the Neoproterozoic oxygenation event or "Second Great Oxygenation Event", was likely caused by the ...
