Q3.27. Over long time scales the solubility-temperature feedback(below), can affect climate. An increase in atmospheric CO2concentrations increases the greenhouse effect and causestemperatures to rise. As ocean temperatures rise, the solubility ofCO2 decreases. As a result, CO2 is released from the oceans to theatmosphere, strengthening the greenhouse effect and causingtemperatures to rise further. What type of feedback is this?
a. A positive feedback that amplifies climate change
b. A positive feedback that dampens climate change
c. A negative feedback that amplifies climate change
d. A negative feedback that dampens climate change
a. A positive feedback that amplifies climate change
b. A positive feedback that dampens climate change
c. A negative feedback that amplifies climate change
d. A negative feedback that dampens climate change
