Oceanic Acidification

Více o knize

Focusing on the critical issue of oceanic acidification, this book provides a comprehensive review of historical pH and CO2 levels, exploring both natural and human-induced sources of CO2. It delves into the chemical, physical, and biological impacts on marine life, supported by laboratory studies and field observations. Additionally, the author discusses various mitigation strategies, both technical and political, to address the challenges posed by declining seawater pH. Dr. Ronald Eisler, a recognized expert in chemical risk assessment, presents real and projected consequences of this pressing environmental concern.
