Impacts of Ocean Acidification
Impacts of Ocean Acidification 5. Food Web Disruption Base level instability: Changes in plankton populations ripple upward. Fisheries impact: Economically important species may decline, affecting human food sources. 6. Chemical Changes in Seawater Nutrient cycling alteration: Affects the availability and processing of key nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus. Toxin production: Some harmful algal blooms may become more frequent or toxic. Part 3: Deep Dive into Ocean Acidification
