Ocean acidification is the lowering of seawater pH over time, as the ocean absorbs carbon dioxide (CO 2) from the atmosphere. The pH scale is used to measure how acidic or basic a water-based solution ...

The technique, known as ocean alkalinity enhancement, usually involves dissolving acid-neutralizing rocks in the ocean, ...

and most of the world’s corals are living in seawater conditions that are close to the threshold they can withstand. Estuaries, including Puget Sound and Chesapeake Bay, have naturally low pH that may ...

Footage of a firefighting plane picking up water from the Pacific Ocean to beat back the wildfires currently burning in Los Angeles has only added fuel to a debate taking place among onlookers on ...

According to the Japan Meteorological Agency, the pH level for surface seawater around the world is about 8.1, meaning the alkaline level is still strong. But the figure is projected to reach a ...

This study investigates the performance of a solar photovoltaic (PV)-powered reverse osmosis (RO) desalination system applied ...

Museum palaeontologist Prof Richard Twitchett explains, 'Ocean acidification is a change in the pH of seawater, which is normally around neutral'. The pH scale measures a substance's acidity or ...
