the 1980s the oceans have absorbed 20 to 30 percent of total anthropogenic CO2 emissions. 7.7 pH value By the year 2100, today’s average pH value in the oceans could drop from 8.1 to ca. 7.7. If that [...] it would take millennia for the oceans to fully recover from anthropogenic changes. As such, the fateful trio of warming, acidification and hypoxia will continue to plague marine ecosystems for many

in European Seas Our oceans are faced with ever growing anthropogenic pressures by expanding human activities in offshore areas. This blue growth of marine industries is raising the demand for ocean

there is a problem arising directly from CO 2 : As much of the anthropogenic CO 2 is taken up by the ocean, concentrations of CO2 and bicarbonate increase while the concentration of carbonate ions and the

To answer these questions sediment cores [...] similar temporal resolution, if achievable, to disentangle the anthropogenic and natural contribution. For investigations, primarily diatom-δ18O will be used to establish hydrological time-series and detect

In addition, we aim to explore how lead of anthropogenic origin enters Antarctic waters, where it mixes with naturally introduced dissolved lead. Anthropogenic lead in seawater can be easily distinguished from naturally introduced lead by significantly increased concentrations and a
