Another example is the isotopic composition of boron, which reflects the pH of ancient seawater – a measure of ocean acidity that is closely [...] process by which warmer, saltier water masses from the Atlantic are pushing further north into the Arctic Ocean through the Fram Strait. This is a recent and ongoing phenomenon, and understanding its pace and [...] reconstruct those past episodes – how fast things changed, what forces drove them, how ice sheets and oceans responded – we would gain something invaluable: a longer perspective on what is possible.

Thereby, we contribute to the Helmholtz research [...] greenhouse gas, rising CO 2 causes ocean warming: temperatures of the surface waters have already increased by 1.1°C on average, while some regions like the Arctic Ocean changing fastest (IPCC 2022). The [...] anthropogenic CO 2 is taken up by the ocean, concentrations of CO2 and bicarbonate increase while the concentration of carbonate ions and the pH decrease, also known as 'Ocean Acidification'.
