On the Source of Carbon Dioxide in Water
Covering the birth of all things depends on the transformation of yin and yang, and the economy of water and fire. Between waters, the existence of carbon dioxide is related to the balance of ecology and the life of all spirits. Let's discuss its source today, in order to study the origin of aquatic carbon dioxide.

Water is connected to the atmosphere, and gas interacts. This is one way for carbon dioxide to enter the water. In the atmosphere, carbon dioxide floats, and often dissolves into the water due to the pressure difference. When the wind is fluctuating, water and air touch a wide range, and they dissolve quickly; when the wind is calm, their dissolution is slow. However, this is the channel of nature, so that water can capture carbon dioxide in the air to nourish various things in the water.

Furthermore, the metabolism of aquatic organisms is also a source of carbon dioxide. Fish, turtles, shrimp and crabs, when they breathe, spit out the new and exhale carbon dioxide in the water. Aquatic algae, although photosynthetic, but when there is no light at night, they also need to breathe and release carbon dioxide in the water around them. And the microorganisms at the bottom of the water decompose humus, and also produce carbon dioxide, which is seeped through the water and distributed in the water body.

What's more, the spring flow of the earth veins contains minerals, which may carry carbon dioxide. The spring comes out of the ground and rushes through rivers, lakes and seas, and the carbon dioxide it carries into the water. And in the land of volcanoes, if there is geothermal activity underwater, the gas of magma escapes, and carbon dioxide can also dissolve into the nearby water to add to its source.

From the view, aquatic carbon dioxide comes from multiple sources. The dissolution of the atmosphere, the generation of living things, the carrying of springs, and the escape of geothermal heat all contribute to the supply of carbon dioxide in water. Its impact on the ecology of water bodies is far-reaching, and it is related to the quality of water quality and the prosperity and decline of living things. Only by understanding its source can we know the change of ecology, which is to protect water and nourish things and seek long-term benefits.
