  B) Thermohaline circulation exchanges carbon between surface dissolved organic carbon and deep layers of dissolved inorganic carbon.
  C) Increased warming results in glacial melt and more runoff of surface pollutants that can contribute to ocean acidification.
  D) Oceans may absorb much of the concentrations of rising CO2. When dissolved CO2 mixes with saltwater, carbonic acid forms (H2CO3).
  E) Increased photosynthetic activity in phytoplankton resulting from increased atmospheric CO2 concentrations results in acidification due to a complex chemical reaction during plant decay.
