Changes in the ocean

• Scientists worry about ocean species success due to Increased levels of CO2 impacting living organisms such as shells of muscles. Scientists were able to predict these potential issues because There are muscles living near underwater volcano current and natural high levels of   CO2 these changes may be happening too fast for evolution and natural selection

• ocean currently serving as a buffer for temperature change

• coral reefs no longer forming

• Melting of sea ice could lead to a tipping point and increasing ocean temperatures

• Scientist suggests an experiment that student could easily do. Beaker containing water and ice and thermometer of temperature probe, apply heat and record heat over time.
