Aragonite saturation states and pH in western Norwegian fjords: seasonal cycles and controlling factors, 2005–2009

The uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) by the ocean leads to a process known as ocean acidification (OA), which lowers the aragonite saturation state (Ω<sub>Ar</sub>) and pH, and this is poorly documented in coastal environments including fjords due to la...
