Effects of elevated pCO2 on the survival, growth, and moulting of the Pacific krill species, Euphausia pacifica
Posted on OA: 17 Mar 2016 While ocean acidification (OA) is expected to have wide-ranging negative effects on marine species, organisms currently living in variable pH environments that expose them intermittently to pH values approaching those predicted for the future, may be better adapted to tolerate prolonged exposure to high
Ocean acidification – changing waters on the Oregon coast
Posted on OA: 1 Feb 2016 — Oregon State University, via Youtube, 21 January 2016 Oregon is ground zero for ocean acidification impacts–the water chemistry off our coast is already changing and has changed dramatically. For a glimpse into the science, the impacts and the information gaps behind ocean
Climatic modulation of recent trends in ocean acidification in the California Current System
Posted on OA: 27 Jan 2016 — Turi G., Lachkar Z., Gruber N. & Münnich M., 2016. Environmental Research Letters 11(1):014007. We reconstruct the evolution of ocean acidification in the California Current System (CalCS) from 1979 through 2012 using hindcast simulations with an eddy-resolving ocean biogeochemical model forced with observation-based
West Coast study emphasizes challenges faced by marine organisms exposed to global change
Posted on UW Today: 11 Jan 2016 — By Michelle Ma The Pacific Ocean along the West Coast serves as a model for how other areas of the ocean could respond in coming decades as the climate warms and emission of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide increases. This region —
