The phrase
"acidification process" refers to the process by which a substance or environment becomes more acidic.
Full definition
Ocean acidification processes are occurring at global scales; therefore, we need to go beyond local measurements and observe ocean acidification globally in order to understand its drivers correctly.
acidification The process of becoming more acidic.
During the water fast we supply ample amount of alkaline water to offset the effects of
the acidification process.
Scientists predict that reefs could switch from carbonate accretion to dissolution within the century due to
this acidification process.
Coral reefs are particularly vulnerable to the ocean
acidification process, because reef architecture is built by the accretion of calcium carbonate, called calcification, which becomes increasingly difficult as acid concentrations increase and the surrounding water's pH decreases.
