Importantly, this indicates that even the upper sea level rise bounds are within the survival limits of resilient reef ...

Most field research on ocean acidification has focused on mid- to high-latitude regions where diatoms, coccolithophores, and other large phytoplankton predominate. Limited data exists on ...

Ocean acidification is a detrimental consequence of climate change caused by the ocean’s absorption of CO2, and it is threatening the environment. Due to its global scale, addressing ocean ...

To address concerns for acidifying oceans, the National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded new grants totaling $11.4 million through its Ocean Acidification program. The awards are supported by ...

A thorough review of ocean acidification science found that organisms’ responses to ocean acidification are overwhelmingly negative, harming growth, reproduction, calcification and survival. There ...

This demonstration provides a clear, visual introduction to one of the important consequences of increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations on seawater, called ocean acidification.

One in three people relies on the oceans for their livelihood, yet they remain little-known, with neither global governance ...

Factors ranging from rainfall to nutrient runoff to changing mining and agricultural practices drove decades-long pH trends ...
