Ocean acidification has been mapped from space, in a new map that could help chart damage in water around the world. Around one-quarter of the carbon dioxide released through human activities is ...

The Chesapeake Bay is the continental United States' largest estuary, spanning approximately 320 kilometers (200 miles) ...

The water will appear green/blue indicating a pH of roughly 7.2 to 7.6 (use the colour chart provided with ... The Catalyst 'Ocean Acidification' story summarises the evidence for ocean ...

A scientific research cruise following the palaeo-equator has uncovered nearly 53 million years of climate and ocean acidification ... after a two-month voyage to chart the detailed climate ...

“Ocean acidification theory appears to have been fatally flawed almost from the start. In 2004, two NOAA scientists, Richard Feely and Christopher Sabine, produced a chart showing a strong ...

They also identified a strong correlation between the accelerated rate of melting ice in the region and the rate of ocean acidification, a perilous combination that threatens the survival of plants, ...

"We found evidence that OA (ocean acidification) could make seaweeds more vulnerable to physical damage, which could come from storms or from grazing animals," study author and marine sciences ...

The heat from increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is melting critical sea ice and causing ocean acidification, or a reduction in the pH of the ocean over an extended period of time.

Ocean warming and ocean acidification driven by climate change decrease the nutritional quality of some marine organisms, causing disruptions to the ocean food web. This is the main conclusion of ...

Ocean acidification occurs when carbon dioxide is absorbed into the water, forming carbonic acid and increasing the acidity of the water. The most common way this process happens is when ...

A new study by Ruhr University aquatic biologists shows that freshwater acidification may be catching up -- and even surpassing -- ocean acidification in a race that may harm essential parts of ...
