As global climate change intensifies, ocean acidification is becoming a ‘relentless killer’ threatening coral reef ecosystems ...

Ocean Acidification: Another Undesired Side Effect Of Fossil Fuel-burning Date: May 24, 2008 Source: European Science Foundation Summary: Up to now, the oceans have buffered climate change ...

The ocean has absorbed a significant portion of all human-made carbon dioxide emissions. This benefits human society by moderating the rate of climate change, but also causes unprecedented changes to ...

Increased ocean acidification is harmful to marine life, leading to issues such as weakening the shells and skeletons of ...

Researchers and hatcheries are exploring new ways to protect shellfish in the Pacific Northwest, although Trump budget cuts ...

The economic cost to coral reefs, wild fisheries and aquaculture alone of the process known as Ocean Acidification is projected to reach more than US $300 billion per annum.

New research suggests that ocean acidification won’t impair these fishes' behavior, in contrast to earlier studies. Fredrik Jutfelt/Norwegian University of Science and Technology By Jonathan Lambert ...

Science has a prescription for the ocean’s heartburn. Some side effects are worth it. A project to de-acidify bay waters saved baby oysters in Oregon — and has the potential to save the oceans.

Ocean acidification entails a decrease in the pH of ocean water as the carbonate that buffers it is consumed. That carbonate does more than just maintain pH, though.

Like climate change, ocean acidification is a growing global problem that will intensify with continued CO2 emissions and has the potential to change marine ecosystems and affect benefits to society.
