Focuses on understanding changes in Canada’s oceans and coastal environments, the effects of ocean acidification on biological resources as well as building on collaborative networks and strategies to address ocean acidification in coastal communities
The Canadian team is aligned with the Marine Environmental Observation Prediction and Response Network (MEOPAR)’s Ocean Acidification Community of Practice (OA CoP). The Ocean Acidification CoP’s priorities include developing an ongoing catalogue of ocean acidification research and infrastructure in Canada; improving linkages between coastal communities, policy makers, First Nations groups, fishing and aquaculture industries, and scientists; and to identify knowledge gaps, recommend monitoring priorities, and share data and best practices.
