Anthropogenic CO2 is reducing the pH and altering the carbonate chemistry of seawater,
with repercussions for marine organisms and ecosystems. Current research suggests that …

Coastal seas are critical components of the global carbon cycle, yet little research has been
conducted on the impact of ocean acidification on coastal benthic organisms. Calcifying …

Ocean acidification (OA) is altering the chemistry of the world's oceans at rates unparalleled
in the past roughly 1 million years. Understanding the impacts of this rapid change in …

Ocean acidification threatens organisms that produce calcium carbonate shells by
potentially generating an under‐saturated carbonate environment. Resultant reduced …

Ocean acidification, a reduction in ocean pH due to the uptake of anthropogenic carbon
dioxide (CO2) by surface waters, has recently emerged as a research theme in marine …

Ocean acidification is considered detrimental to marine calcifiers based on laboratory
studies showing that increased seawater acidity weakens their ability to build calcareous …

Ocean acidification is altering the oceanic carbonate saturation state and threatening the
survival of marine calcifying organisms. Production of their calcium carbonate exoskeletons …

Background Human activities have increased atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide
by 36% during the past 200 years. One third of all anthropogenic CO2 has been absorbed …

Ocean acidification results in co-varying inorganic carbon system variables. Of these, an
explicit focus on pH and organismal acid–base regulation has failed to distinguish the …

Ocean acidification due to increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations results in a decrease
in seawater pH and shifts in the carbonate chemistry that can negatively affect marine …
