Each year, billions upon billions of tons of CO 2 are pumped into the atmosphere. A significant proportion of this ends up in Earth's oceans, where it can react with water to form carbonic acid, which ...

HONOLULU (KHON2) — A new University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa study showed there will be unseen levels of ocean acidification around the Hawaiian Islands. The acidification process happens as the ocean ...

The world’s oceans absorb about a quarter of humanity’s carbon dioxide emissions, buffering us against higher atmospheric CO2 levels and greater climate change. But that absorption has led to a ...

Researchers have found that acidification can kill H5N1 in waste milk, providing dairy farmers an affordable, easy-to-use alternative to pasteurization. Pasteurization is the only widely recognized ...

Nearly a third of the CO2 that humans pump into the atmosphere ends up in the ocean. That’s helping slow down climate change—at least for now—but as the water absorbs so much extra carbon dioxide, ...
