BOdega Ocean Acidification Research
Since 2018, the BOAR research group has used a multi-pronged approach to study the emerging problem of ocean acidification and related multi-stressors, including:
oceanographic instruments and data syntheses to understand spatial and temporal changes in seawater chemistry
laboratory culturing and field based investigations to determine impacts of ocean acidification on the key coastal species
close collaborations with local communities, conservation groups, and aquaculture industry members
synergistic research with social scientists to understand the impact of these changes on coastal communities
