Melting sea ice may evoke images of polar bears stranded on shrinking floes or dramatically collapsing ice shelves. But according to a study published recently in the journal Science, ice melt is triggering another ecological threat: a drastically acidified Arctic Ocean. This has diminished access to key chemical building blocks for organisms that call the […]

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.

Cameron Scott discusses recent Durham research that suggests we may still have a chance to stop catastrophic ice sheet melt.

New research showed the correlation between Arctic ice's fast-melting and ocean acidification, raising environmental concerns over the impact on marine life.

A new study found the western Arctic Ocean is acidifying three to four times faster than other oceans, with "huge implications" for sea life.
