Ocean acidification studies and the uncertainties relevance on measurements of marine carbonate system properties

The global ocean has a key role on the Earth's climate system. It possesses a direct connection with the atmospheric gases, including the greenhouses, allowing exchanges between those compartments and oceanicstorage of carbon. Through the years, this exchange of gases occurred based on gas equi...

Summary:The global ocean has a key role on the Earth's climate system. It possesses a direct connection with the atmospheric gases, including the greenhouses, allowing exchanges between those compartments and oceanicstorage of carbon. Through the years, this exchange of gases occurred based on gas equilibrium between ocean and atmosphere. Here, Perretti et al discuss the ocean acidification (OA) studies and the uncertainties relevance on measurements of marine carbonate system properties.
