| One of the new studies finds that the increase in carbon dioxide is also having a previously unpredicted impact in acidifying the world's oceans. |
| Scientists know that carbon dioxide is warming the atmosphere, which in turn is causing sea level to rise, and that the CO 2 absorbed by the oceans is acidifying the water. |
| It is the hydrogen ion component that is toxic, affecting cell membranes, acidifying substrata, and leaching metals like calcium. |
| Treatment options include acidifying the soil, spraying the foliage and trunk injection. |
| So the same calcium that our bones need to stay strong is utilised to neutralise the acidifying effect of milk. |
| They keep the excess nitrogen from acidifying the upper soil horizons. |
