Time-series observations of ocean acidification: a key tool for documenting impacts on a changing planet

Ocean acidification (OA) is a pressing global issue characterized by fundamental changes in ocean chemistry, including the reduction of pH levels, due to the absorption of increased atmospheric CO2. This phenomenon poses significant threats to marine ecosystems, affecting biodiversity, food security, and coastal economies. Time-series observations remain indispensable for documenting these changes, offering insights into the drivers and consequences of OA over temporal and spatial scales. This editorial summarizes the 17 studies in this Research Topic, highlighting the advancements in understanding OA dynamics and their broader implications.
