Geochemical survey of Levante Bay, Vulcano Island (Italy), a natural laboratory for the study of ocean acidification
Shallow submarine gas vents in Levante Bay, Vulcano Island (Italy), emit around 3.6t CO2 per day providing a natural laboratory for the study of biogeochemical processes related to seabed CO2 leaks and ocean acidification. The main physico-chemical parameters (T, pH and Eh) were measured at more tha...
