An International Observational Network for Ocean Acidification
An integrated international interdisciplinary program of ship-based hydrography, time-series moorings, floats and gliders with carbon system, pH and oxygen sensors, and ecological surveys is recommended to determine the large-scale changes in the properties of ocean water and the associated biologic...
