Climate Change and Ocean Acidification: Olympic Coast- Video
In recent years, shellfish growers in Washington state have needed to develop monitoring and treatment practices to avoid spawning failures that have been linked to periodic upwelling of more acidic ocean waters. Read this overview of OA research on the Olympic coast!
Keepin' it Real: Connecting Ocean Acidification to Watershed Health and Promoting Student Action- Video
This webinar funded by the NOAA OAP focuses on using the "Virtual Urchin" education tool which can be used by students and teachers to see real lab data and an action module.
Understanding OA
Learn how our oceans are absorbing increasingly more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, leading to lower pH and greater acidity with this educational resource from NOAA. Ocean acidification is fundamentally changing the chemistry of the world’s oceans and threatening our marine resources.
Crabs in a Changing Ocean
This infographic from NOAA and National Marine sanctuaries, outlines how crabs will be impacted by changing water chemistry and what you can do to help!
DFO: Ocean Acidification Video
This video from the DFO-Canada outlines how the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere have continued to increase due to human activities, lowering the pH of the ocean and making it more acidic. This process of ocean acidification increasingly affects ecosystems and those communities that directly rely on the ocean.
