11/28 - On Tap for 2005: ACID OCEANS
What's going to be big in the oceans for 2005? You can count on the topic of "Ocean Acidification" to start rising up as a major issue. How bad is it? Which organisms will suffer? Lots and lots of unanswered questions, which is why scientists have scrambled to organize a major conference in the spring to get some answers.
Is there anything in the ocean cooler than Coccolithophores? And yet,
in an acid ocean, they may bloom no more.
