Ocean health is moving into a danger zone, with rampant human-caused carbon dioxide emissions having already pushed ocean acidification levels beyond safe limits in large swaths of the marine ...

As atmospheric carbon dioxide levels continue to rise, the ocean plays a crucial role in helping to reduce the full impact of human-driven climate change by absorbing roughly a quarter of the ...

‘We’re seeing the effects of ocean acidification in real time — from threatening lobster populations in the Gulf of Maine to eroding coral reefs in tropical waters’ — Chellie Pingree, US ...

The oceans could become so filled with carbon dioxide that scientists are proposing a new factor to measure their capacity for absorption. Our current math isn't enough.

Major changes hit a key CDC vaccine advisory panel, ocean acidification crosses a critical threshold, and new research reveals an unexpected threat to pangolins.

By using a wide variety of resources and findings from prior studies, the researchers discovered that the planetary boundary for ocean acidification has been crossed by approximately 40% of the ...

The planetary boundary for ocean acidification —the limit of what Earth can tolerate before the onset of destructive consequences—is a 20% drop in the concentration of calcium carbonate (a ...

A US think tank known to promote skepticism about global warming published a video claiming to fact-check climate "alarmism over ocean acidification." But the clip misrepresents the phenomenon ...

A new assessment finds that the world’s oceans crossed the safe threshold for acidification in 2020, breaching a key planetary boundary and posing serious threats to marine life. Ocean ...

Ocean acidification has crossed “planetary boundaries” in some parts of the ocean, deepening a crisis facing the planet’s marine ecosystems.

Dangerous tipping points Ocean acidification crosses “planetary boundaries” Crisis facing the world's marine ecosystems is getting worse.

Rising carbon dioxide emissions are not only increasing global temperatures, but are also making the oceans more acidic, threatening marine organisms. Here is a videographic explaining ocean ...
