The transfer should be smooth, you will note a few cosmetic changes (e.g. change of banner) and the URL will change to www.iaea.org/ocean-acidification/news-stream, but not much else will change. All previous posts will still be available. For those of you following this news stream by Facebook, please re-subscribe as the page will change (Facebook page name: OAICC). For those of you following by Twitter or email, nothing should change (except for the Twitter name and email address).

We thank Jean-Pierre Gattuso for the avant-garde idea and his dedication during numerous years!

Some history:

This news stream was launched in July 2006 by Dr Jean-Pierre Gattuso (Research Professor at the Centre national de la recherche scientifique, Laboratoire d’Océanographie de Villefranche-sur-mer). From May 2008 it was maintained by the European Project on Ocean Acidification. Since August 2012, the news stream has been managed by the Ocean Acidification International Coordination Centre (OA-ICC), based at the Environment Laboratories of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Monaco, with the goal of continuing this service to all ocean acidification stakeholders, including the scientific community, decision makers and the general public.

The purpose of this news stream is to centralize information about ocean acidification and its consequences on marine organisms and ecosystems. By no means is it meant to be comprehensive, but we attempt to provide an unbiased view of the literature and media articles.

Disclaimer: The IAEA and its Member States do not endorse the opinions or views expressed in the items that are posted on this news stream, which are posted solely for the purpose of informing the interested audience.
