Ocean acidification, driven by the uptake of anthropogenic CO₂ by seawater, is lowering ocean pH and altering carbonate chemistry with profound consequences for the reproductive cycle of marine ...

Acidity levels are rising around the world, but Puget Sound is one of the hardest hit areas. Meteorologist Leah Pezzetti with our ENW team explains.

Ocean acidification threatens many marine organisms, especially marine calcifiers. The only global-scale solution to ocean acidification remains rapid reduction in CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, ...
