24 - Versauerung vun den Ozeanen

Set 2 www.climatefresk.org 24 Wa sech CO 2 am Waasser vum Ozean opléist , gëtt en zu saueren Ionen (H 2 CO 3 an HCO 3 - ). Dat féiert derzou , dass den Ozean méi sauer gëtt (de pH - Wäert geet erof ).

CO2-Emissiounen

CO2-Emissiounen

Why not but rather link Card 12 (Carbon sinks) to card 24. It is meant for it.
CO2-Konzentratioun (ppm)

CO2-Konzentratioun (ppm)

Players often identify CO2 concentration as a cause for ocean acidification. But it is more logical to link back to carbon sinks.
Hausse vun der Waassertemperatur

Hausse vun der Waassertemperatur

The increase of water temperature is not linked to ocean acidification, at least for the time being. In the long term (over several centuries), as it heats up, the water will lose its capacity to dissolve atmospheric CO2 and will become less efficient as a carbon sink. So the increase in water temperature will inhibit, to some extent, ocean acidification.
