You have a supposed phd in physics, surely you understand the carbonate cycle in the ocean, right?
Yes.

I'm on my iPad so there is no pointer. You could have just as easily provided a link rather than trying to demonstrate your usual shitty persona.
Here's a pretty graph I like.

So all these glaciers are melting and the word is coming to an end with a .5C swing in temps in 150 years? Does this pass the common sense test?

The carbonate cycle is a two way system that buffers the ocean. Unlike temperature which is mainly driven by the sun and had all sorts of boundary conditions affecting the feedbacks....
Ocean sustain IS driven by CO2 diffusing across the barrier. More CO2 means more diffusion based on the scientific chemical facts of the system.
This actually it's settled science. We have known about the carbonate system for a hundred years. We are seeing actual effects that really do concurred with models in this respect. This is a real problem

That's the pt, NC.
They use anomaly because it is based on a user determined normalization.
It's bunk
It doesn't really matter. A person with a brain can look at the graph and subtract two numbers. Its a lot easier though if they aren't all three digits and in Kelvin.

What is the solution?

Would an effort to reduce acidification have a similar effect on industry like an anti-CO2 push would?

Funny how it got quiet all of a sudden

No, because this is a chemical system, there are multiple solutions to prevent acidification.
Some of the answers are to phase out some CO2 production, however because the system is a buffering system, we can reduce it slowly, intelligently and the system will respond.
Residency time is high, and the system so large it isn't a we all gonna die problem. It's a real problem that does need to be addressed by adults, in advance, to prevent a catastrophe.

You see this as more of a marine life threat, rather than a climate threat?
Posted on 6/18/14 at 10:29 pm to SpidermanTUba
Wait! You have a PhD in physics and you had to start a thread on the O-T Board asking how to light your gas heater?!
Posted on 6/18/14 at 10:32 pm to LSUgusto
Considering like 80 percent of the world's population relies on marine sourced protein, I see this as a humanity issue.
Unlike many on here may believe, I think it is important to make sure that the resources for people to use are available. Those who are eager to work hard and succeed are robbed if the basic necessity of a reliable source of protein is unavailable.
ETA, this is related to my field of study, but not where my research direction leads. I do not work on this topic, I get no grant money or even publish a mention of this topic.

What are the biggest contributors to ocean acidification?
Posted on 6/18/14 at 10:37 pm to LSUgusto
Increased atmospheric CO2. Look up the marine carbonate buffering system. There are plenty of easy to understand diahrams and more complex explanations available.

Wouldn't efforts to limit CO2 based on acidification rates resemble policies to thwart "climate change"? Just on a smaller scale?
ETA: Not on a "We all gonna die" scale?

Yes. And no. You're thinking of someone else. its very easy to light my gas heater. No matches needed.

Other than CO2 reduction, what?
