Ocean Acidification: Physiological Tipping Points for Marine Species - Press Conference
Offered By: AGU via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore groundbreaking research on ocean acidification's impact beyond coral reefs in this 30-minute press conference from the 2011 AGU Fall Meeting. Discover how fish, crustaceans, sea urchins, and other marine species experience stunted growth and development in lower-pH ocean environments. Learn how scientists are measuring species' sensitivity to climate change and determining critical tipping points where normal biological functions cease. Gain insights into past and ongoing ecosystem changes from experts including Hans O. Pörtner, Sam T. Dupont, and Chris Langdon as they discuss their findings from sessions OS42B and OS43E.
