Amplified bottom water acidification rates on the Bering Sea shelf from 1970-2022

Abstract

The Bering Sea shelf supports a highly productive marine ecosystem that is vulnerable to ocean acidification (OA) due to the cold, carbon rich waters. Previous observational evidence 15 suggests that bottom waters on the shelf are already seasonally undersaturated with respect to aragonite (i.e. Oarag
