Ocean acidification in the Baltic Sea: involved processes, metrology of pH in brackish waters, and calcification under fluctuating conditions

Globally, ocean acidification presents a threat to marine ecosystems. In the Baltic Sea, this process could so far not be quantified, partly due to a lack of appropriate pH observations. This study unravels a positive alkalinity trend in the Baltic Sea over the past two decades that counteracted aci...
