Ocean Acidification The main theme of the 3 articles is that the ocean is becoming more acidic due to fossil-fuel emission of CO2. The ocean has absorbed about 525 billion tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere‚ this reduces the amount of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere (1). ). It is lowering the pH by .1 units changing it from 8.2 to 8.1… it is becoming more acidic. (2). It happens when the CO2 from the air mixes with the sea water‚ it produces a bicarbonate ion. This bicarbonate ion then

The ocean as vast and as mysterious as it is‚ is facing problems caused by humans dumping waste into it and that is causing marine life to be harmed. It was thought that the ocean was so deep and huge that no matter how much garbage you put into it would have small consequences. As we have seen that is very wrong‚ here are a few of the problems ocean pollution cause: Toxic metals can destroy the biochemistry‚ behavior‚ and reproduction of marine life. Fertilizer runoff creates eutrophication that

Ocean acidification is caused by CO2 in the atmosphere when it reacts with water it creates carbonic acid. It’s a significant and harmful consequence of excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that we don’t see or feel because its effects are happening underwater. When carbon dioxide is absorbed by seawater a chemical reaction occurs that reduces the seawaters pH‚ carbonate ion concentration‚ and saturation states of biologically significant calcium carbonate minerals. It decreases the pH of seawater

Future of Our Oceans The fact of the matter is that the levels of CO2 that this planet we call Earth is expelling is incredible. Like 30 billion tons per year incredible. This rate of change drastically effects everything‚ including the most popular type of surface we have on Earth‚ our oceans. Although the oceans are delaying the effects of global warming by taking in heaps of carbon dioxide‚ this does not mean the oceans go unaffected. This is not a small problem either. As oceans take in more

hasn’t escaped the world’s attention. Ocean acidification however is a much less known issue‚ it is a result of about 79 million tons of CO2 that is released into the atmosphere every single day‚ not just from fossil fuel burning‚ but also from the deforestation of cement‚ and the production of cement. Ever since the beginning of industrial revolution‚ approximately a third of the CO2 let into the atmosphere from anthropogenic reasons got absorbed by the world’s oceans‚ which plays a very big role in controlling
