Ocean acidification impacts on Southern Ocean calcifiers IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science. Paper presented at Climate Change Global Risks, Challenges and Decisions, Copenhagen 10-12th March 2009, 2009 (Ref: 13624)
Category 3: Abstract

Adding carbon dioxide (CO2) to the ocean alters the carbonate chemistry and lowers pH, making surface waters more acidic and decreasing the carbonate ions available to calcifiers for calcite and aragonite production.

Interannual variability of pteropod shell weights in the High-CO2 Southern Ocean Second Symposium on The Ocean in a High-CO2 World, Monaco, 6-9 October, 2008, 2008 (Ref: 13592)
Category 3: Conference paper

Anthropogenic CO2 added to the atmosphere during and since the industrial revolution is entering the global ocean. Addition of extra (anthropogenic) CO2 to the ocean changes the carbonate chemistry and the pH of the surface ocean…
