Short summary
Satellite and machine-learning methods now allow monitoring of pCO2,sw and acidity. Using ship and buoy data at the Canary Islands from 2019–2024, models (especially bagging) estimated CO2 and pH with high accuracy. Results show rapidly rising ocean CO2 and increasing acidification, driven by higher atmospheric CO2 and warming, including the 2023 marine heatwave. The region shifted from a weak CO2 sink to a strong source by 2024.
