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

The results could change projections of how, when and where the currently massive levels of atmospheric carbon will result in environmental changes such as ocean acidification. By re-examining ocean ...

They find that the current rate of ocean acidification puts us on a track that, if continued, would likely be unprecedented in last 300 million years. There are several ways acidification events ...

What ocean acidification does to coral and other marine life. ... The tiny algae are the primary calcifiers of our oceans and are important contributors to Earth's carbon cycle.

The oceans could become so filled with carbon dioxide that scientists are proposing a new factor to measure their capacity ...

"This report that ocean acidification decreases nitrification (the amount of nitrogen) is extremely important," says Garrison, "because of the crucial role of the nitrogen cycle in biogeochemical ...

Ocean acidification has become a field of research only in recent decades, ... a warming and cooling cycle involving strong winds that pull warmer surface water on or offshore.

Ocean acidification is the product of increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. ... “It’s climate change, plus looking at the carbon cycle as well,” said Dr. Stephen Riser.

Ocean acidification in tropical and subtropical oligotrophic waters reduces primary production by about 10%, impacting the global carbon cycle. Eukaryotic phytoplankton decline under high CO 2 ...
