webinars OCTO (Open Communications for the Ocean <https://www.octogroup.org>) and the EBM Tools Network.
*Tuesday, October 2, **1 pm US EDT/10 am US PDT/5 pm UTC*
*Managing Global Acidification on a Regional Scale: How the US Mid-Atlantic
and Northeast Coastal Acidification Networks (MACAN and NECAN) Are Working
to Understand Impacts through Partnerships. *The chemistry of the ocean is
changing. Carbon dioxide released through emissions and deforestation is
absorbed and dissolved into the ocean. The regional Coastal Acidification
Networks of the US Northeast and Mid-Atlantic (NECAN and MACAN) are consortiums
of scientists, marine industry, and resource managers with a central goal
of sharing information to better understand the impacts of acidification
to appropriately manage and adapt to these conditions. Coordinators for
NECAN and MACAN will discuss how these regional efforts work towards
identifying and pursuing opportunities to understand coastal and ocean
acidification in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, building upon the skills
and interests of individual members and providing a forum to share best
practices in monitoring, sampling collection, and researching effects to
collectively meet the challenges of our changing coastal and ocean waters.
Webinar hosted by the EBM Tools Network (co-coordinated by OCTO and
