The world's ocean pH measurements have been omitted from the modern narrative of ocean acidification, as documented at www.abeqas.com under the category 'ocean ph and acidification'.
In particular, the true records have been replaced by a misrepresentation of recorded ocean pH in a presentation to the U.S. Congress (the "feel2899.pdf" reference used in Markey U.S. Congressional 2011 hearings on climate change and ocean acidification (House Report 111 – 709)).
Accordingly we the undersigned petition the U.S. Federal Government and related branches and agencies, including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), that:
1. The entire collection of WOD.NODC.NOAA.gov ocean pH data be put back into service by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) for the benefit, examination by, and education of all. 2. The ocean pH glass electrode (geph) monitoring distribution and intensity be restored to the numerical equivalent of the median of all other common ocean chemistry annual measurement records based on WOD.NODC.NOAA.gov records . 3. NOAA will post at a prominent high traffic location within their web site, according to recognized standards, a time series graphic of mean global ocean pH from 1910 to current conditions, based purely on direct pH measurements archived at WOD.NODC.NOAA.gov. 4. NOAA and other agencies who have misrepresented the history of recorded ocean pH, will reach out to all who were misinformed by those agencies, including the U.S. Congress, and strive to correct those misrepresentations in any and every means that can reasonably be implemented for as long as that effort can reasonably be implemented.Updates

The momentum surrounding our request for transparency in ocean pH data is growing as we approach our next milestone. Reaching two hundred and fifty signatures will provide the necessary threshold to demand a formal review of these records.

I have been reviewing technical records to ensure our request for the restoration of NOAA ocean pH data remains grounded in verifiable evidence. Transparency regarding these historical measurements is essential for an informed public discourse. I appreciate the commitment shown by the community as we continue to push for the integrity of these scientific archives.

This is not the only nonscience in the attempt to vilify the role of the greening gas on ocean ph . Studies have been published using acids like HCl , which is not a building block of life like CO2 and utterly irrelivant to the point of fraud .
As a practicing Meteorologist, I can find absolutely no reason for NOAA to behave like it is doing. There is an appearance of impropriety and fraud here to promote a political agenda given the touted claims about "ocean acifification".
The fudging of numbers in the name of "ocean acidification," "global warming," or "climate change" is a disgrace to true science which is based on constant research and a willingness to discared theories disproved by evidence. Galileo could relate.
Science should be open and scientists, especially government scientists inputting into public policy should be obliged, as a disciplinary matter, to reveal all their methods and data and any omissions and the reasons for them in published papers
I would like to join this petition to ensure that scientific conclusions are based upon facts, not bias, or deletion of information to skew results for personal recognition, grant money, or political agenda.
Is this editorial available today? The link you provided went dead. Either that or the MBA removed your article. Would really like to have this pH data for a project we are doing at Just Facts (justfacts.com).
I believe we must have accurate records that are not manipulated..

In compiling a time series history for analysis, it is necessary to have a good, calibrated, and validated set of measurements. NOAA has engaged in fraud in using model output of ocean pH instead of measurements. Restore the ocean pH measurements.
