This is an increase 100 times faster than any change in acidity experienced in the marine environment over the last 20 million years, giving little time for evolutionary adaptation within biological systems, the report says. Carbonate ion concentrations are now lower than at any other time during the last 800,000 years.

Study: Increasing CO2 and Decreasing O2 Will Result in Significant Expansion of Oceanic Dead Zones, With Severe Effects on Marine Animals

Green Car Congress

APRIL 18, 2009

New calculations made by marine chemists from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) suggest that low-oxygen “dead zones” in the ocean will expand significantly over the next century, with severe effects on marine animals. This could have significant consequences for marine life in these zones.

The results show both the power of long-term time-series of ocean observations for deciphering how marine microbial communities are responding to climate change and offer evidence that the ocean garden is changing. The CPR survey was launched by British marine biologist Sir Alister Hardy in the early 1930s.
