Modelling the carbonate system to adequately quantify ocean acidification
Given specific CO2 emission scenarios, predictions of future ocean carbonate chemistry are relatively certain at the global scale. However future regional ocean acidification and ocean carbonate chemistry are less well understood. A major challenge is assessing the risk of ocean acidification on mar...

Given specific CO2 emission scenarios, predictions of future ocean carbonate chemistry are relatively certain at the global scale.
