That wouldn't help de-acidify the oceans. But I guess through diffusion it's all connected anyway.

The Mediterranean is connected to the oceans and to the black sea but their salinity is really different, I do not believe diffusion works as easily.

Right but if you take CO2 from the Mediterranean, then it will absorb more from the air, which means the oceans will absorb less from the air.
