Chris Perry, Professor of Geography
in the College of
Life and Environmental Sciences, and his team measured
changes to 28 reefs across the Chagos Archipelago, the remote British Indian
Ocean Territory 300 miles south of the Maldives, that lost 90 per cent of its coral cover during 1998, when sea temperatures rose to unprecedented levels.
Some coral populations
in peripheral seas (or extreme environments such as tide pools)

The question of how Trichodesmium cyanobacteria are reacting to the

The finding suggests that sea
life is already being affected by
changes in the
ocean's chemistry caused by rising carbon dioxide levels.
Beyond the sea level rise itself, the ancient geologic and geographic
changes probably led to a buildup of oxygen
in the atmosphere and a
change in ocean chemistry, allowing more complex
life - forms to evolve, he said.

As proposed by Andrew Goldsworthy
in 1987, cyanobacteria and later chloroplast - related protists and plants developed after microbes that used a purple pigment bacteriorhodopsin that absorbs green light dominated the
oceans, and so the new photosynthetic cyanobacteria were forced to use the left - over light with chlorophyll that reflects green light, which was too complex to
change even after purple - reflecting photosynthetic lifeforms were no longer dominant (Debora MacKenzie, New Scientist, September 10, 2010 — more on the evolution of photosynthetic
life and plants on Earth).
«However, combined effects of nutrient loading and climate
change are greatly increasing the number and size of «dead zones»
in the open
ocean and coastal waters, where oxygen is too low to support most marine
life.»
«We have to consider there are two sides of the coin: On the one hand, the uptake of carbon dioxide moderates climate
change but, on the other hand, it affects
life in the
ocean — with consequences for economy and society.»

in the complete absence of sunlight
in conditions that were utterly toxic to any other
life forms on Earth.
These sorts of problems have led Charles Moore, an oceanographer and racing boat captain who played a significant role
in discovering and publicizing the great Pacific Garbage Patch, to argue that plastic pollution has become a more urgent problem for
ocean life than climate

When I explore this landscape I find myself connecting with the textures and patterns that nature provides, finding interest
in detritus that washes ashore, both organic and

ocean meets land; ever
changing, our
lives are deeply connected to this place where tides ebb and flow revealing aggregate shapes, leaving imprints, and proving that time is both fast and slow.

The environments created
in and by the sculptures will constantly
change with the currents and the time of day, focusing the attention of the viewer on the rhythm of the
ocean and its
life cycles.
The non linear nature of forcing is related more to positive feedbacks and
changes that are still being studied, such as cyclic
changes in moisture content and regional dispersion, the methane cycles
in the
ocean or the potential of methane clathrate / hydrate release, and of course the race to feed more people on a planet which will inevitably add more nitrous oxide to the atmosphere and create more dead zones
in the
oceans, droughts, floods, fires, dogs and cats
living together, mass hysteria....
And given the fact that land warms more quickly than
ocean, resulting
in areas of low pressure over land,
changing patterns of atmospheric and oceanic circulation are bringing them to the coasts — where so much
life's diversity is found.
It's killing fish, crabs and other marine
life and leading researchers to believe that a fundamental
change may be taking place
in ocean conditions in the northern Pacific O

Karl Schroeder: If there is any
life on Earth
in 100 years, I foresee either an ecological catastrophe, with the majority of species extinct, the
oceans stagnant, the arctic and Antarctic desolate and lifeless, and billions of people
living in complete ignorance of how things could be,
in massive urban centres; or, a world
in which climate
change was solved early and completely through innovations
in power generation and carbon sequestration, where agriculture has gone to vertical farming and North America has largely been rewilded back to forest and open prairie, and where extinct species are regularly recreated by genetic engineering and reintroduced.
The findings of a new hybrid species of shark goes to show just how versatile
life can be
in dealing with the ecosystem altering forces of climate
change — proving yet again that within the depths of the world's
oceans and its most keenly adapted inhabitants, there may be no shortage of natural marvels and awesome phenomena left to be discovered.
Living things
live in a narrow range of ph. Recent
oceans and ancient
oceans that allowed complex
life had a ph that varied approximately from 7.5 to 8.5 and any
change in ph occurred over extended time periods.
Didn't their study demonstrate that a
change in the PH is unlikely to have much impact on
ocean life since the local PH
changes frequently
in any case?
Other aspects of global warming's broad footprint on the world's ecosystems include
changes in the abundance of more than 80 percent of the thousands of species included
in population studies; major poleward shifts
in living ranges as warm regions become hot, and cold regions become warmer; major increases (
in the south) and decreases (
in the north) of the abundance of plankton, which forms the critical base of the
ocean's food chain; the transformation of previously innocuous insect species like the Aspen leaf miner into pests that have damaged millions of acres of forest; and an increase
in the range and abundance of human pathogens like the cholera - causing bacteria Vibrio, the mosquito - borne dengue virus, and the ticks that carry Lyme disease - causing bacteria.
It will cost some time and effort and will impact our incomes and standard of
living in the short term, but it will stop climate
change (and
ocean acidification).
