Ocean currents push phytoplankton, and pollution, around the globe faster than thought
2016-04-19 21:03:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: The billions of single-celled marine organisms known as phytoplankton can drift from one region of the world's oceans to almost any other place on the globe in less than a decade, Princeton University researchers have found. Unfortunately, the same principle can apply to plastic debris, radioactive particles and virtually any other human-made flotsam and jetsam that litter our seas, the researchers found. Pollution can thus become a problem far from where it originated within just a few years....

Ocean scientists recommend plan to combat changes to seawater chemistry
2016-04-13 05:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Global carbon dioxide emissions are triggering permanent changes to ocean chemistry along the North American West Coast that require immediate, decisive action to combat. That action includes development of a coordinated regional management strategy, concluded a panel of scientific experts including Andrew Dickson, a professor of marine chemistry at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego. A failure to adequately respond to this fundamental change in seawater chemistry, known as ocean...
