Description
Summary:Ocean acidification (OA) continues to be one of the most studied single topics in marine science. Almost 800 articles on OA appeared in 2016 alone. Forty-four of those were published in a special themed issue of the ICES Journal of Marine Science, “Towards a broader perspective on ocean acidification research.” Submissions to that themed initiative continued well beyond the original deadline and were so numerous that we decided to publish this—a second OA-themed issue—which contains an additional 33 articles. In this Introduction, I briefly present the contributions that appear in this theme issue, and then offer an updated assessment of the status of OA research.
