| Summary: | Joanie Kleypas is a marine ecologist/geologist who specializes in the interactions between marine ecosystems and climate. In particular, she looks at the impacts of increased carbon dioxide on coral reefs, such as how ocean acidification (C02-induced changes in seawater chemistry) affects the rates at which reef-building coral and algae secrete their calcium carbonate skeletons. Kleypas is a researcher in NCAR's Climate and Global Dynamics Division and its Integrated Science Program. |
