Scientists constructed a 100-year history of acidity in the Gulf of Maine. They expected coastal variability but were ...

Scientists have known for decades that soaring atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions are causing changes in ocean chemistry, ...

Ocean health is moving into a danger zone, with rampant human-caused carbon dioxide emissions having already pushed ocean ...

Scientists had determined that ocean acidification enters this danger zone or crosses this planetary boundary when the amount ...

As atmospheric carbon dioxide levels continue to rise, the ocean plays a crucial role in helping to reduce the full impact of ...

A US think tank known to promote skepticism about global warming published a video claiming to fact-check climate "alarmism over ocean acidification." But the clip misrepresents the phenomenon, which ...

One of the most important indicators of the overall health of the planet is the acidity of the ocean, and a new study found that ocean acidity is rising, and rising quickly to dangerous levels. NOAA ...

The new study found four of the world’s seven ocean basins have crossed the planetary boundary for ocean acidification. Polar regions have been most widely affected: Nearly 87 per cent of the Southern ...

Ocean acidification has crossed “planetary boundaries” in some parts of the ocean, deepening a crisis facing the planet’s marine ecosystems.
