NOAA Ocean Acidification Demonstration

Ocean Acidification is a global-scale change in the basic chemistry of oceans that is under way now, as a direct result of the increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. We are just beginning to understand the impacts of Ocean Acidification on life in the ocean. The moniker osteoporosis of the sea, gives you a hint about some of its impacts.

Outstanding video. This message needs to get out........

[Tconn625]

this lady? haha. Dr. Lubchenco is a genius and she has does so much for the scientific community. who cares what her voice sounds like

[profesorbl]

I like It

[Tigorfc]

sangat bagus

Good Video I like It

Nice Video I like and Lovely

Good, thanks for shared

If the shells are supposed to just melt away as we increase atmospheric CO2, then why have coral reef extension rates increased since the 1700's? Shouldn't they be going down?

Cool story bro.

But then again US has fell behind in Science and Mathamatics ever since the "Liberal Infiltration" in to the poublic schools and most collages in the 70's after putting a man on the moon in the 60's with "fringe technology" the space shuttle (late 60' tech)doesn't even have

Why would a University Physist working in a University lab or Government lab need to know anyhting of Ecology,vulcanology,Geology,me­terology,Oceangraph?

All they need to do misquote Svante's "cause of Ice Age(lack of co2)

"Don't become a slowly boiling frog-man."

As long as the ,er, "experts" are using the Scientific Method proper the will eventually rediscover that 18th century GHG theory was upsurped by Evaporation/percipitation in Meterology and the Thermalhyline cycle in Ocenagraphy with observes heat disapation and distribution

They'll also redisvcover Vulcanology knowlegde of Earth's Core heat regulates climate through Geology's Plate tectonics via plumiong(warming)&waning(Ice Age).not a trace gas

[TheRealArchAngel]

"I trust there are REAL experts who are better than me."

At what?

"These expects, no doubt they are your "betters" as well, have already done/cpmpleted the testing & verification."

No they didn't otherwise they wouldn't think/claim 1.5 trillion tons of co2 in 5000 trillion tons of air could raise thousands of trillions of tons of co2 in 300 million triilion tons of water a few thousands of trillions of tons more (the math doesn't add up)

"co2..temperature"

Earth's Core regulates climate
