Because traits are essential for where copepods live and why they live there, the scientists would be able to look at one particular region with some special conditions and predict the kinds of copepods that live there. It should be possible to make predictions for all ecosystems to see how they will be affected by climate change. Copepods play a crucial role in the ocean’s carbon cycle, that is, the removal of CO2 from the ocean surface and transfer to the ocean floor. Large copepods remove more CO2 and stay beneath the surface for longer periods of time. This could influence the length of time that CO2 is held in the ocean.Let's meta-use the new system. As defined by purpose, what is a scientist? A living thing that seeks to shoehorn the entire world into a grant to study Global Warming so that Deepstate can kill Deplorables more effectively. = = = = = More serious followup...
