Carbonate chemistry variability in the East coast of Gran Canaria island

1.1. Carbonate system variability: Marine acidification
In a natural occurring way, there have always been great variability of greenhouse gases concentration in the atmosphere (carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane). Those oscillations have always presented a quite constant range over the last 650 thousand years before the Industrial Revolution. From then on, in 1750, the greenhouse gases’ concentrations have suffered a sharp increase due to emissions from anthropogenic activities (Joos and Spahni, 2007).
