With the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, oceans are becoming warmer by trapping the heat in the water. Thus this impacts the marine ecology as the species that live there down have to deal with the changes in temperature of the water. 

Research on the how marine organisms such as fish, whales, algae, barnacles, and sponges are affected by the change in the water. 

How carbon dioxide is affecting the ocean as it dissolves in the ocean and affects seaweed and other organisms.
