Was just sent these great informative short videos about research being done to understand how climate change affects coastal communities. Coastal organisms live in areas with much day to day variation. There are the changing tides, the amount sun exposure, and also shade from tidal zone seaweeds and rock crevices. This makes coastal animals, like . . . → Read More: California Coastal Climate Change Research

For those not in know, there is an ongoing decrease in the pH of the oceans from carbon dioxide released by humans into the atmosphere. From 1751 to 1994, the pH of the world’s oceans has dropped by 0.1, an considerable decrease . . . → Read More: Ocean Acidification, Not Good For Living
