for me, it's ocean acidification.

So I'll close with a short discussion of ocean acidification.

We have all sorts of other problems, like ocean acidification that come from CO2 in the atmosphere, anyway.

Climate change, ocean acidification, dissolved oxygen, carbon cycle, coastal upwelling, fishing dynamics the full spectrum of earth science and ocean science simultaneously in the same volume.

81. Notes the work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, including the finding that, while the effects of observed ocean acidification on the marine biosphere are as yet undocumented, the progressive acidification of oceans is expected to have negative impacts on marine shell forming organisms and their dependent species, and in this regard encourages States to urgently pursue further research on ocean acidification, especially programmes of observation and measurement

Expressing its concern over the projected adverse effects of anthropogenic and natural climate change and ocean acidification on the marine environment and marine biodiversity,

And then the last thing on the list there, ocean acidification if you were to ask me, you know, What do you worry about the most?

So, Charlie Veron came up with this statement last year The prospect of ocean acidification may well be the most serious of all of the predicted outcomes of anthropogenic CO2 release.

Likewise, rising temperatures are reducing the ocean's oxygen carrying capacity. The increasing uptake of carbon dioxide is causing ocean acidification and unprecedented changes in chemical and physical conditions, which in turn are affecting marine organisms and ecosystems.

Rob Dunbar hunts for data on our climate from 12,000 years ago, finding clues inside ancient seabeds and corals and inside ice sheets. His work is vital in setting baselines for fixing our current climate and in tracking the rise of deadly ocean acidification.

But it shows that we are interconnected, among many systems on the planet, with the three big systems, climate change, stratospheric ozone depletion and ocean acidification being the three big systems, where the scientific evidence of large scale thresholds in the paleo record of the history of the planet.

That's the reason that they're not able to respond or adapt to this rapid acidification that's going on right now.

With growing energy consumption in developing countries, the danger of acidification problems is increasing, especially in areas with high coal use.

In fact, what's being absorbed is something like 25 percent of our emissions, which then leads to acidification or lower alkalinity in oceans.

Acidification causes changes in the chemical composition of the soil, damages vegetation and the built environment and adversely affects terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems.

At even larger scales, impacts include regional acidification caused by sulphur and nitrogen emissions from fuel combustion or global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions.

A prompt action satellite, Ocean O , was used to obtain data on ocean parameters.

While this approach may be appealing, it is inadequate to address today s most pressing issues. For example, producing and delivering nutritious food consistently to upwards of nine billion people by mid century has implications for water and energy consumption, agricultural development and land use, the nitrogen and phosphorus cycles, and ocean acidification, not to mention biodiversity loss, such as through overfishing.

We're at the ocean.
