Marine Scotland Contributes to International Publication on Ocean Acidification
25th July 2019 by Marine Scotland Communications

OA results from a change in the carbonate chemistry of the ocean making it more acidic, primarily as a result of the increased uptake of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. This increased acidity of seawater may negatively impact many marine…
