Project Summary-Ice melt, rising ocean levels, and changes in

precipitation cause salinity fluctuation

-Experiments conducted to see effects of salinity changes:

-Results support hypothesis of salinity changes affects water-based ecosystems

So What Does This Mean?• Organisms cannot

osmoregulate

• The Future: Salinity changes

disrupt marine ecosystems

More research needed to broaden our analysis
