<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Abstract:</b> Anthropogenic
carbon emissions are predicted to alter marine ecosystems in
unprecedented
ways. One such effect is the decline in pH, or ocean
acidification. Global
ocean carbon model predictions of ocean acidification have
guided biological
experiments for more than a decade, with many studies
predicting negative
consequences of future ocean pH on marine invertebrates.
However, to understand
how species will respond to future conditions, knowledge of
organisms’ present-day
local pH exposure is necessary and often underdescribed. In
this seminar, I
will describe pH variability in two of the most sensitive
marine ecosystems to
ocean acidification: coastal Southern Ocean and the
California Current
Upwelling System. Results from this research show that
coastal species
experience changes in pH that are outside the envelope of
change predicted with
ocean acidification by the end of the century. This body of
research provides
the environmental data necessary to study organismal
tolerance and local
adaptation to ocean change. As anthropogenic stressors
continue to take hold of
coastal seas, understanding the biological consequences is
critical for
maintaining healthy marine ecosystems and guiding coastal
management decision-making. </p>
