kelp forest could help protect the ocean animals from ocean acidification what evidence supports this claim and explain why the evidence supports the claim

Kelp is an ecologically and economically important foundation species in California, where forests line nutrient-rich, rocky bottom coasts. One of the detrimental impacts of increased carbon in the atmosphere is its subsequent absorption by the planet’s oceans, which causes acidification – a chemical imbalance that can negatively impact the overall health of marine ecosystems, including animals people depend on for food.

Kelp has been targeted as a potentially ameliorating species in part because of its speedy growth – up to 5 inches per day – during which it undergoes a large amount of photosynthesis that produces oxygen and removes carbon dioxide from the water. In Monterey Bay, the effects of giant kelp are also influenced by seasonal upwelling, when deep, nutrient-rich, highly acidic water from the Pacific is pulled toward the surface of the bay.
