is that it affects the ocean too, temperatures are rising and not only that but the ocean chemistry is changing as well due to increased amounts of carbon dioxide dissolving into the ocean. This leads to several complications in the coral reef ecosystems. The coral reef ecosystem is a variety of different species that interact with each other and the physical environment held together by calcium carbonate structures. They are built by colonies of underwater animals in marine waters that contain…

Topic B: Ocean acidification and coral reefs Introduction • Ocean acidification is a reduction in the pH of the water in the ocean as a result of increased carbon dioxide uptake in the ocean due to humans burning fossil fuels at such a high rate. • Unless drastic changes are made in regards to CO2 emissions, the rate of ocean acidification is projected to significantly increase over the next century. It is currently estimated that without any changes the pH of the oceans will be 7.8 by 2100 (…
