Abstract

The article discusses the impact of ocean acidification to the ocean ecology. The author notes the influence of climate change in the changes of the oceanic chemistry, the implications of high acid content in the ocean water to the ability of damselfishes, sharks and crabs to smell predators, and mentions that the capability of sea creatures to live in acidic waters may be passed to its offspring.
