Is water acidification occurring at the same rate/amounts as in the oceans, lakes, and municipal drinking water?
What about well water? Or bottled water advertised as alkaline?

What is the impact of ocean acidification on the Great Barrier Reef in Australia?
Hello! I am working on a research essay for an IB Math IA (The question is the topic). Basically, in a math IA, you apply two mathematical connections of your choice to real-world contexts. You write a ~12 page paper, including data sets and graphs, using the data you found on the topic and conduct your own study using your two math topic connections. If that makes sense. My aim is to investigate the rate at which ocean acidification affects the growth and health of The Great Barrier Reef (GBR) over the last two decades. Mathematical connection: Use statistical applications to employ a two-sample t-test taking coral pH levels and calcification rates from the year 2000 and 2024 to calculate the p-value. My second connection is using regression analysis by applying linear regression analysis to model the relationship between pH levels and the calcification rates of coral in the GBR. If anyone is willing to help me find accurate data and create the math problems/ equations and the graphs and data sets, that would be super helpful. Let me know if you are confused or if you have any questions :)

I calibrate Seawater pCO2 Sensors and would like to know if anyone has a paper, or insight for me.
I recall from a few years ago my professor discussing CO2 flux and the reactions, but I cannot remember which is the limiting reaction (i.e. the slowest).
H2CO3* <--> HCO3-
HCO3- <--> CO3--
If I recall the bicarbonate / CO2 reaction is the slower reaction, but I cant find a citation to back me up.
Can someone lend a hand to find the proper documentation?

Does CO2 kill algae?
I was hoping for a point of clarity about what Joe says in this video (seven minutes in) where he says ..
the oceans actually absorb a lot of carbon dioxide from the air, but it makes the oceans acidic which kills algae -- algae that turns carbon dioxide into oxygen -- which takes that carbon dioxide out of the carbon process leaving it up in the air and making it even more concentrated.
I don't understand how carbon dioxide is suppose to get to the algae in the first place, based on what he's saying. How is the carbon dioxide suppose to get to the algae if its killing it before it gets there?

Need Some help regarding preparing an assignment
I am writing a piece on Ocean Acidification. Can anyone suggest me some reading materials or scientific journals from where I should start?
I know how to google but thought would ask some experienced people for some heads up for a noobie
