    Group Description

    Evaluation, Mitigation and Adaptation of Impacts of Ocean Acidification to Marine Ecosystems
    Ocean Acidification (OA) owing to increasing atmospheric CO2 may have profound impacts on marine ecosystems including coral reefs that may lose their fundamental function of reef construction. However, large spatial-temporal variation and technological hurdles of monitoring seawater carbonate chemistry prohibit accurate predictions of OA impacts on coral reefs, and thus, effective mitigation and adaptation strategies. Here, we propose to first establish an innovative methodology for monitoring of OA, replicable across the world. The authors of this proposal are the inventors of the core technology. As a second step, we propose to monitor and model seawater carbonate chemistry (pH-alkalinity) and reef calcification capacity in five sites (Okinawa, Hawaii, Réunion, Mayotte Islands, and Tonga). Other good practices in OA management will be evaluated for cross-learning between the five sites
