Ocean Acidification and Deep-sea Organisms
2013-05-25 14:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environmental News Network: Although the natural absorption of CO2 by the world's oceans help mitigate climate effects, the resulting decrease in pH causes ocean acidification which can have negative consequences for much of the marine life, specifically calcifiers such as corals and mollusks that construct their shells and skeletons from calcium carbonate. To study the effects of ocean acidification on deep-sea organisms, a team of researchers at the University of Bristol and Yale University used Synchrotron Radiation X-ray...

Arctic Ocean Rapidly Acidifying
2013-05-23 17:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environmental News Network: After three years of ongoing research by an international team of scientists, a study commissioned by the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme for a first-ever comprehensive assessment of Arctic Ocean acidification was presented last week at a meeting of Arctic Council Ministers in Bergen, Norway. The research show that the cold waters of the Arctic sea are more vulnerable to acidification. Cold water more readily absorbs CO2 and combined with the precipitous drop in summer sea ice extent,...

Arctic faces further threat from ocean acidification
2013-05-07 11:58:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Reuters: The Arctic ecosystem, already under pressure from record ice melts, faces another potential threat in the form of rapid acidification of the ocean, according to an international study published on Monday. Acidification, blamed on the transformation of rising levels of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide from the air into carbonic acid in the sea, makes it harder for shellfish and crabs to grow their shells, and might also impair fish reproduction, it said. Cold water absorbs carbon dioxide more...
