Is More Global Warming Hiding in the Oceans?
2013-05-30 10:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
US News and World Report: A man enjoys the ocean after sunset in 2012 on Ngapali Beach, Myanmar, located on the shores of the Andaman Sea. The HMS Challenger set sail 135 years ago. It was the world's first scientific survey of ocean life. But the HMS Challenger also studied ocean temperatures along the way by dropping thermometers attached to Italian hemp ropes hundreds of meters deep -- an effort that has been used as a baseline for global warming in oceans since pre-industrial times. Now, according to a new study,...

Supergreen hydrogen creation could capture carbon from the air and de-acidify the oceans
2013-05-28 16:02:57| Extremetech
A team from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory claims to have found a method of saline water electrolysis that can both capture CO2 from the atmosphere and use that carbon to neutralize ocean acidification.

Oyster shells are an antacid to the oceans
2013-05-21 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
New York Times: Like ocean waters around the world, the Chesapeake has become more and more acidic as a result of rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Now, by studying oyster populations in relation to acidity levels, a team of researchers has concluded that oysters particularly their shells can play a significant role in reducing that acidity. Oyster shells are made out of calcium carbonate, so theyre sort of like an antacid pill, said George Waldbusser, an assistant professor of earth, ocean...

Why Warming Oceans Could Mean Dwindling Fish
2013-05-16 11:54:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Time: Its easy to forget that global warming doesnt just refer to the rising temperature of the air. Climate change is having an enormous, if less well understood, impact on the oceans, which already absorb far more carbon dioxide than the atmosphere. Like so much of what goes on in the vast depths that cover more than two-thirds of our planets surface, the effect of climate change on the oceans remains a black box--albeit one that scientists are working to illuminate. Heres one way: fisheries....
