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 ...

They also identified a strong correlation between the accelerated rate of melting ice in the region and the rate of ocean ... pH level of the Arctic waters, they knew, reducing the alkaline levels of ...

"The current rate of ocean acidification appears unprecedented ... Darker blue areas suggest faster acidification (that is, their pH levels are expected decrease more sharply) — and the effect ...

These species are also particularly vulnerable to ocean acidification triggered by increased ... being negatively affected by decreasing ocean pH levels. But until now most studies looked at ...

This is what “ocean acidification” is all about ... Everything living in the ocean evolved with the ocean pH at one level, and now humans have suddenly made the ocean much more acidic.
