RAPIDLY INCREASING OCEAN ACIDIFICATION Acidification is measured by pH (hydrogen ion concentration). It is inverse to the pH. Source: European Environment Agency #oceanacidification #climatchange

In an attempt to establish a scientific twitter presence, let me introduce myself. I'm Jess! I am a second-year master’s student @HPU examining the chronic effects of #oceanacidification on the #geochemistry of coral skeletons. The goal is to begin my Ph.D. fall 2023!

New publication reviewing the indirect effects of #oceanacidification on coral reefs @jcu @enviro_sci @CoralCoE @tessitahill @SpringerCORE

What are we measuring on #ECOA3? Pt 1: pH @udceoe scientists measure how acidic or basic the seawater is with pH. They use a spectrophotometric pH (“spec pH”) system that is very accurate and precise, providing high quality pH data along the coast. #OceanAcidification

#seabutterflies : The thinness and calcareous constitution of their shells make these planktonic molluscs extremely vulnerable to #oceanacidification, a type of canary in the coalmine of the ocean. #sciart #scicomm #marinebiology #plankton
