Monitoring Ocean Acidification within State Borders: Lessons from Washington State (USA)
The Washington State Department of Ecology conducted a large-scale ocean acidification (OA) study in greater Puget Sound to: (1) produce a marine carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) system dataset capable of distinguishing between long-term anthropogenic changes and natural variability, (2) characterize how rive...
