New Zealand will host the 6th International Symposium on the Ocean in a High-CO2 World next fall from 12 – 16 October 2026 in Wellington. This conference will bring together marine climate change scientists to explore the impacts of rising CO2 on the ocean and the marine environment. Ocean acidification remains a central theme of the symposium series, and this edition will also expand to consider other ocean climate impacts, such as ocean warming and deoxygenation, especially in a multiple driver context. Research on marine carbon dioxide removal interventions suggested to mitigate climate change and ocean acidification will also be a key part of the conference. Join researchers and other thought leaders from across the globe to explore the impacts of rising CO2 and help share future ocean science solutions.
The event is organized by the Te Herenga Waka Victoria University of Wellington and will take place at the Tākina Event Center. Stay tuned for more information about the program and registration.
