A special issue of the Oceanography magazine covering the changing ocean chemistry has been recently published online. The special issue features over 20 articles selected and prepared for publishing by two guest editors: John W. Farrington from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and Flip Froelich from the Froelich Education Service. The issue was produced with the support of the US National Science Foundation. The printed version will be available as of March 2014.
