Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 8.116 Resources, Human Impacts and Climate Change skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Which statement best connects human population, per-capita consumption, technology, and climate impacts?

APopulation is the only factor that can affect Earth's systems

BTotal impact depends on how many people there are, how much each person uses, and which technologies are used to provide resources and manage waste

CTechnology always removes every environmental impact

DPer-capita consumption has no effect on resource demand

Solution & Explanation:Human impacts depend on total demand and on the technologies and practices used to meet that demand. Monitoring and mitigation can reduce impacts but do not make them disappear.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Which data set would provide the strongest evidence for a long-term environmental trend?

AMeasurements from many sites collected with the same method over 30 years

BOne measurement from one site on one day

CA rumor that a lake looked different

DData collected with a different method every day and no location labels

Solution & Explanation:Consistent methods, many sites, and long time spans make trend evidence more reliable.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A reef reserve wants to monitor ocean acidification. Which data set would be most useful?

AOne photograph of the beach parking lot

BThe number of boats seen on one holiday

CA single wave height measurement during one storm

DRepeated measurements of pH, carbonate chemistry, temperature, and reef organism health at the same sites

Solution & Explanation:Ocean acidification is best monitored with repeated chemical and biological measurements at consistent locations.
