Planning Document Question Check-In
My issue:
Ocean acidification is a complex process that has severe implications for our planet. It occurs
when carbon dioxide is absorbed by seawater, which then reacts with water molecules to form
carbonic acid. This reaction leads to a decrease in the concentration of carbonate ions in the
ocean, making it difficult for marine organisms such as corals, mollusks, and plankton to form
their shells and skeletons (Ocean Acidification, n.d). The reduction in carbonate ions has a ripple
effect throughout the entire marine ecosystem. This is because these organisms are the
foundation of the ocean's food chain. If they are unable to form their shells and skeletons, they
become more vulnerable to predation and are unable to provide food for larger organisms. As a
result, the entire food chain is disrupted, and entire ecosystems can collapse.
Ocean acidification is primarily caused by human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels,
deforestation, and industrial processes. As the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
continues to increase, so does the absorption of this gas by seawater, leading to a further decrease
in pH levels. Given the severity of the problem, we must take steps to mitigate the effects of
ocean acidification. This could include reducing carbon emissions, investing in renewable energy
sources, and promoting sustainable practices. By taking action now, we can help preserve the
health and biodiversity of our oceans for generations to come.
My question:
Over time, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has consistently risen. Therefore, my
research question would be: What specific impacts is this phenomenon having on these
environments?

Carbon dioxide dissolves in water according to the equations:CO2( g) + H2O(l )<----->H2CO3(aq)H2CO3(aq) + H2O(l)<----->HCO3-(aq) + H3O+(aq)Carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere have increased about 20% over the last century. Given that Earth’s oceans are exposed to atmospheric carbon dioxide, what effect might the increased CO2 be having on the pH of the world’s oceans? What effect might this change be having on the limestone structures (primarily CaCO3) of coral reefs and marine shells?
