For life on land this process is a boon ... a marine ecologist, has called ocean acidification global warming's "equally evil twin." The pH scale, which measures acidity in terms of the ...

Ocean acidification strips seawater of the materials that marine animals — such as corals, plankton and shellfish — use to build their shells and skeletons. This can stunt growth or cause deformations ...

Ocean acidification, a consequence of climate change caused by the ocean’s absorption of carbon dioxide (CO 2), is threatening the environment. Because of its global scale, addressing ocean ...

What is the 'other carbon dioxide problem'? How are humans driving changes in the chemistry of the ocean, and what might this mean for marine ecosystems in the future?

P rinceton University and Xiamen University researchers report that in tropical and subtropical oligotrophic waters, ocean acidification reduces primary production, the process of photosynthesis ...

Sonardyne announced the integration of its CONTROS HydroC dissolved CO2 sensor from -4H-JENA engineering into its ...

The OA-ICC is an IAEA Peaceful Uses Initiative project launched at the UN Rio+20 conference in 2012 following increasing concern from IAEA Member States about ocean acidification. The Centre responds ...

Ocean acidification, caused by the ongoing absorption of atmospheric CO₂, poses threats to marine ecosystems and biodiversity. Accurately assessing variations in seawater pH is crucial for ...

Pollution and over-exploitation of our oceans are posing ever-greater problems, such as an acute threat to biodiversity, ocean acidification and an increase in plastic waste. A continuously growing ...

Dehradun: Ocean acidification is accelerating at an alarming rate, with ocean surface pH declining globally at –0.017 ± 0.001 pH units per decade from 1985 to 2023, according to the World ...
