Resumen
La acidificación del océano está empeorando en el Ártico debido al aumento de la absorción de carbono. Este estudio proyecta un mayor almacenamiento de carbono y estados de menor saturación de minerales, amenazando los ecosistemas marinos del Ártico.
Área de la Ciencia:
- La oceanografía
- Ciencias del clima
- Química marina
Sus antecedentes:
- La acidificación del océano, impulsada por la absorción antropogénica de carbono, reduce el pH y los estados de saturación mineral de carbonato (Ω arag, Ω calc).
- El Océano Ártico es particularmente vulnerable debido a los bajos niveles naturales de Ω arag y Ω calc, enfrentando impactos significativos en el ecosistema por la acidificación.
- Las proyecciones de la futura acidificación del Ártico varían considerablemente entre los modelos del sistema terrestre.

01:50Global Climate Change
28.3K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

04:02Weak Acid Solutions
41.7K
Few compounds act as strong acids. A far greater number of compounds behave as weak acids and only partially react with water, leaving a large majority of dissolved molecules in their original form and generating a relatively small amount of hydronium ions. Weak acids are commonly encountered in nature, being the substances partly responsible for the tangy taste of citrus fruits, the stinging sensation of insect bites, and the unpleasant smells associated with body odor. A familiar example of a...

01:16What is Climate?
20.3K
Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.

01:28Carbon-dioxide Fixation
490
Carbon dioxide fixation in prokaryotes enables the assimilation of inorganic carbon into organic molecules, supporting biosynthetic pathways, sustaining ecosystems, and contributing to the global carbon cycle. It also has industrial applications in carbon capture and bioproduct synthesis. Autotrophic organisms rely on this process to utilize CO₂ as a carbon source in diverse environments.The Calvin CycleThe Calvin cycle is the most widespread carbon fixation mechanism, primarily used by...

01:22Effect of Sea Water on Concrete
846
Concrete exposed to seawater can undergo degradation like the dissolution of ettringite and gypsum, increasing the material's porosity and decreasing its strength. In contrast, the crystallization of salts within the concrete's pores can cause expansion, particularly above the waterline where evaporation occurs. Nonetheless, this expansion only happens when seawater, enabled by the concrete's permeability, manages to infiltrate the structure.

01:21Acidity of Carboxylic Acids
8.4K
Carboxylic acids are the strongest organic acids. However, their acidic strength is much less than mineral acids like HCl. Carboxylic acids ionize in water and readily lose the hydroxyl proton to form a resonance-stabilized carboxylate ion.
