As warmer waters and ocean acidification reduce coral formation, the seas will take up more carbon dioxide – an effect that ...

Researchers look to extremes in the past to study how the system reacts to imbalances. They detail an overlooked mechanism for how the ocean can help stabilize massive releases of carbon into the ...

These findings suggest that ongoing ocean acidification may significantly alter carbon cycling in nutrient-depleted marine ecosystems, potentially impacting global fisheries and food webs ...

Up to now, researchers have focused on how ocean chemistry and acidification affect the ... play a pivotal role in the carbon cycle, due to their ability to sequester carbon dioxide into their ...

which play a crucial role in the ocean’s carbon cycle, are struggling to survive in a rapidly changing climate. These organisms are like sentinels, warning us of the drastic effects that warming and ...

Planktonic foraminifera are tiny marine organisms, which are essential to the ocean's carbon cycle. A recent study reveals that these populations are shrinking at an alarming rate due to ocean ...

The basic or alkaline water can capture carbon from the ocean and safely store it — which also helps combat ocean acidification ... critical part of the carbon cycle,” said Brian Marrs ...

This process not only removes atmospheric carbon but also helps counter rising ocean acidification, a damaging effect of climate change that threatens marine life and coastal ecosystems.

The USGS wants to examine how the movement of carbon in wetlands can help neutralize ocean acidification ... they need to carry out their life cycle under a more acidic condition," said Kroeger.

It would be impossible to filter enough ocean water to undo ocean acidification around the ... and that’s the natural carbon cycle,” says Running Tide’s senior engineer Andrew Thompson.
