Naomi's blog

Up until last week I made many trips to the OGI library and was busy researching CDOM. One of the most interesting things I learned is that CDOM affects the level of atmospheric oxygen. It does so by limiting the photosynthesis process that occurs underwater, as it limits the amount of light that penetrates through to the organisms and plants underneath that need light to produce oxygen. I found this interesting because I never thought that CDOM would have such a large effect on the atmosphere, let alone have a direct impact on human life.
