Ocean acidification, driven by CO2 emissions, harms marine ecosystems. Acidification reached 1,000 meters on average by 2014.

The levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases like methane and nitrous oxide have been steadily rising for many ...

Rising carbon dioxide levels are driving an increase in the ocean’s acidity – and this change is sinking deeper as emissions ...

Using a 3D model of the world's oceans, the researchers examined how carbon emissions since the industrial age have impacted ...

A pair of environmental physicists at the Institute of Biogeochemistry and Pollutant Dynamics, ETH Zurich, has built a 3D ...

Ocean acidification is the lowering of seawater pH over time ... While the ocean is still basic or alkaline, scientists have observed that its pH levels are dropping as the ocean absorbs levels of CO ...

Earth's oceans are changing due to rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Museum palaeontologist Prof Richard Twitchett explains, 'Ocean acidification is a change in the pH of seawater, ...

Estuaries, including Puget Sound and Chesapeake Bay, have naturally low pH that may be pushed over the edge by future levels of ocean acidification. What can I do about ocean acidification? Although ...

Will organisms be able to adapt to the new ocean chemistry ... and subject them to different levels of acidification. Her results so far suggest that lower pH leads to declines in fertilization ...

The sustainable level of ocean acidification is about to be breached, he said. "Even with rapid emission cuts, some level of ...

Ocean acidification is mainly caused by carbon dioxide gas in the atmosphere dissolving into the ocean. This leads to a lowering of the water's pH, making the ocean more ... contribute to rising ...
