Ocean Acidification Acid Rain
Ocean acidification is a process where carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in the ocean, leading to a decrease in pH levels. This phenomenon can have harmful effects on marine life, particularly on organisms with calcium carbonate shells or skeletons. Acid rain is a type of precipitation that is more acidic than normal, often caused by pollutants in the atmosphere reacting with water molecules. Acid rain can have detrimental impacts on ecosystems, soil, and infrastructure.
