Is there a relation between the acidification of the Arctic Ocean to the melting of its ice? An international team of scientists has raised new concerns about the changing chemistry of the ocean after discovering that the western Arctic Ocean's acidity levels are increasing three to four times faster compared to other ocean waters, according to a report by SciTechDaily.

An international team of researchers has found acidity levels increasing three to four times faster than ocean waters elsewhere and a strong correlation between the accelerated rate of melting ice in the region and the rate of ocean acidification
