| Zusammenfassung |
| The gradual process of ocean acidification (OA) has been well documented for surface waters
of the world ocean at several open ocean sites (time series, rate ~ 0.0018 pH units y-1) over
the last quarter century. In contrast, very little is known in the Mediterranean Sea, because of
scarcity of good quality data, in spite of its importance as the high total alkalinity (AT) is
expected to help seawater to absorb more atmospheric CO2(Touratièr and Goyet, 2010). Even
more scarce data can be referred for the North Adriatic Sea, the northernmost sub-basin of the
Mediterranean. This is a wide and shallow (depth |
