Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Shellfish in the Pacific Northwest
Explore oceanographic conditions that negatively impact shellfish populations
Select the question your instructor has assigned:
Exploration
Explore the relationships among atmospheric processes (wind), ocean processes (currents and upwelling), and how these processes affect ocean chemistry (pH).
Application
Explore the relationships among atmospheric processes (wind), ocean processes (currents and upwelling), and how these processes affect ocean chemistry (pH) and the survival of juvenile shellfish along the coast of the Pacific Northwest.
