Description:
Increasing atmospheric CO2 levels and its implications on marine organisms raise the need for a multiscale approach to ocean acidification research and monitoring. In this session, we look into processes and environmental factors that affect marine species in the context of ocean acidification, mitigation approaches and monitoring activities in the Pacific region. This session is hosted by the PI-TOA Regional Hub.
