EVR 1001 FSU FINAL 2026 ACTUAL
EXAM ALL QUESTIONS AND VERIFIED
ANSWERS | RATED A+ | NEW!!
When companies have to extract oil from an oil well using pressure or
chemicals its called - ANSWER- secondary extraction
Oil, natural gas, and coal are abundant fossil fuels. Once production
declines when reservoirs are 50% depleted we reach - ANSWER- peak
oil (or gas, or coal)
Different fossil fuels come from diff trees sources. Coal is the converted
hydrocarbons from: - ANSWER- algae
In the movie "casing ice" the film crew observed one of the larges ever
wittnessed glacier calving events. Which comparable size was it? -
ANSWER- size of Manhattan
Glacier calving: - ANSWER- Breaking off large pieces of ice from
glaciers
Often enhanced temperatures lead to faster growth of agricultural
products (crops). But why is higher temperature not always beneficial? -
ANSWER- crops have temp maxima and after the temp max is reached
the yield will decrease

How much does the melting of the Arctic SEA ICE contribute to sea
level
Rise (not including thermal expansion or positive feedback)? -
ANSWER- 0
Heat capacity - ANSWER- mount of heat required to raise the
Temperature of an object or substance one degree
An increase of how much energy per m2 is expected according to the
IPCC and the data shown in the lecture? (Tip: Even a small increase in
radiative forcing will change the global temperature dramatically) -
ANSWER- ~ 2 W/m2
Leads to warming of the atmosphere - ANSWER- black carbon
The energy reaching Earth's surface is in average (averaged over the
whole surface) - ANSWER- 342 W/m2
To understand the causes of past, present and future climate change we
have to understand what? - ANSWER- How solar and Earth's radiative
emission interact with environmental factors
What is NOT a potential implication from changes in species
distribution as a result from climate change - ANSWER- population
growth

Which statement is FALSE in relation to animals expected to be most
affected by climate change:
-They have limited climatic range and restricted habitat requirement
-They have limited dispersal ability and/or reproduce slowly.
-They have large populations and do not currently experience any other
threat
-They have physiological or phenological traits influenced by
temperature - ANSWER- They have large populations and do not
currently experience any other threat
Which of the statements below is not a concept of adaptive management
for climate change? - ANSWER- static management
Oceans play an important role in climate bc: - ANSWER- 2/3 of the
earth is covered by water
Water has a much higher heat storage capacity than air
Many scientists consider carbon dioxide the most important greenhouse
gas
Because - ANSWER- it is being produced by fossil fuel burning at a
higher rate than other prominent greenhouse gases
It has a long life-time in the atmosphere
Natural weather variability (e.g. The range of weather in a region's
climate) makes climate predictions challenging.
