Effects of Ocean Acidification on Phosphorus Release

Dust as primary productivity controller

The decrease in pH levels, so-called ‘Ocean Acidification’, has broad ecological consequences, ranging from effects on calcifying organisms and ocean biodiversity to biogeochemical cycling of major nutrients such as nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and iron (Fe).
