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 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
