Current trends meaning? Trends as in “humans pumping out CO2 will have drastic consequences, and these consequences will have an impact on future generations” or trends as “in 100 years sea level will rise this much” or “due to climate change, civilization breaks down due to war, extended famines, flooding, ect”?
If for the first, then I expect it will be worse than we currently imagine. From what I know, effects such as methane seeps and retrogressive thaw slumping (see NWT, Carleton University is among the leaders in this research), along with other permafrost activity such as increase in permafrost active layer, has not been added into climate modelling. A reminder that we can only react to effects seen, so we are catching up.
At 300 CO2 ppm, pH of the seawater would be a theoretical 8.31. So, buffering is still occurring.
