Coastal communities in the Mid-Atlantic depend on the ocean for their livelihoods. As the ocean absorbs more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and becomes more acidic (lower pH), small changes in the food chain can ripple up to the seafood caught and sold locally. Dive in with ocean advocate Eva as she breaks down the sources of ocean and coastal acidification, its impacts on shellfish and the local economy, and actions students can take locally to protect and preserve the ocean from future acidification. We’ll also explore how new carbon removal strategies are becoming part of the solution. (9:00 Min) (Suggested Grades: 6-12)

Ocean Acidification challenges/threatens the livelihoods of shellfish growers, seafood dealers, and commercial fishermen in the Mid-Atlantic. Learn firsthand from three local growers and fishermen about the impacts they’ve observed to oysters, clams, and finfish, the business challenges they’re facing, and the ways they’re adapting their hatchery operations and fishing practices in response to climate change. (5:30 min) (Suggested Grades: 9-12)

In the Mid-Atlantic’s coastal waters, oysters and seagrass provide important habitat for fish and crabs. They also filter out nutrients that cause algal blooms (eutrophication). When faced with ocean acidification, do these habitat builders always lose? In this video, we explore how oysters and seagrass differ in their responses to acidification and what this means for local estuaries and ecosystems. You’ll also learn about community actions that can be taken to prevent ocean acidification and protect these critical habitat builders. (4:30 min) (Suggested Grades: 9-12)

Technological advances in acidification monitoring and ocean carbon dioxide removal can help reduce ocean acidification’s impacts to Mid-Atlantic fisheries and local economy. In this video, we explore how scientists use underwater robots (gliders) to help fishery managers identify “hotspots” of acidification. Find out how innovative carbon removal strategies like enhancing the ocean’s ability to buffer acidity and mineral weathering can be part of the solution. (5:00 min) (Suggested Grades: 9-12)

MACAN Coastal & Ocean Acidification Workshop

MACAN hosted the webinar "Seagrasses in the Mid-Atlantic: Restoration Efforts and Blue Carbon Potential" featuring Cassie Gurbisz (St. Mary’s College of Maryland) and Jill Bieri (The Nature Conservancy Volgenau Virginia Coast Reserve) on June 16, 2025. Watch the recording below to learn about seagrass restoration efforts, the role of submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) in carbon and nutrient cycling, and the potential of seagrass restoration projects for carbon accreditation. 
SAV beds are often thought of as carbon sinks because they convert CO2 to organic carbon, which is then buried in the sediments. However, SAV can also affect the aquatic carbonate system in ways that could either offset or enhance carbon sequestration. Gurbisz discussed an ongoing project that aims to quantify SAV bed effects on the carbonate system in Chesapeake Bay.
Bieri introduced viewers to the largest, most successful seagrass restoration on the planet -- over 10,000 acres of restored eelgrass meadows in Virginia’s Atlantic coastal bays -- now home to the world’s first registered blue carbon seagrass project. This project demonstrates a “proof of concept” on quantifying the benefits of seagrass restoration and how it contributes to long-term restoration and conservation. This project’s success provides lessons learned and paves the way for seagrass projects across the globe, hopefully increasing the pace and scale of this critical work.

Coastal Acidification and Harmful Dinoflagellate Blooms: Interactions and Emerging Implications for Marine Ecosystems and Organisms

In MACAN's March 26 webinar, Dr. Chris Gobler discusses current research on OA and HABs interactions and implications for marine ecosystems and organisms. Marine ecosystems are warming, acidifying, and deoxygenating. In parallel, impacts of HABs on coastal zones have increased. Many eutrophic habitats in the mid-Atlantic and northeast experience recurring HABs and coastal ocean acidification (OA), making these locations focal points of these stressors. Although the fields of HABs and OA are well-established individually, the effects of OA on HABs, and HABs on OA, are poorly understood. The effect of co-occurrence of HABs and OA on marine organisms is largely unknown. This project seeks to establish a comprehensive understanding of how three of the most prominent HABs on the US East Coast ( Alexandrium catenella, Dinophysis acuminata, and Margalefidinium polykrikoides) respond to OA, how differing OA scenarios (current and future) will impact the proliferation of these HABs, and how their co-occurrence will impact economically and ecologically important bivalves and fish. The seasonal progression of OA, hypoxia, and HABs is being quantified through continuous monitoring, surface water mapping, and discrete sampling. Effects of OA on the growth and toxicity of these HABs has been quantified in field and lab experiments. The lethal and sub-lethal effects and co-effects of these HABs and OA at levels observed in an ecosystem setting and approximately future OA have been established for multiple life stages of commercially important bivalves indigenous to the entire US east coast (C. virginica, M. mercenaries, A. irradians) and early life stage forage fish (M. beryllina, C. variegatus). We have found that co-occurrence of HABs, hypoxia, and OA vary seasonally with some HABs co-occurring with levels of DO and/or pH known to be lethal to marine organisms. We found reduced larval bivalve growth and survival by up to 90% when HABs and OA co-occur, leading to survival rates &lt;5%. Economic and ecological implications will be discussed.

Chesapeake Carbon and Alkalinity Study (CHALK)

During MACAN's June 26 webinar, Dr. Raymond Najjar (<a href="https://www.psu.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Pennsylvania State University</a>) discussed the Chesapeake Carbon and Alkalinity Study (CHALK), a new three-year interdisciplinary project funded by the <a href="https://www.nsf.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">National Science Foundation</a>, focused on improving understanding of the role that macrobiota play in estuarine carbon alkalinity dynamics.
The Chesapeake Carbon and Alkalinity Study, CHALK, is a coordinated program of field measurements, laboratory experiments, historical data analysis, and numerical modeling. Research is focused on two contrasting tidal tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay, the Potomac River Estuary and the York River Estuary. Our interdisciplinary research team is evaluating hypotheses about the role of tidal wetlands, benthic fauna, and submerged vegetation in estuarine carbon and alkalinity dynamics. The research plan includes seven main elements: (1) carbonate system measurements, (2) benthic fauna distribution measurements, (3) measurements of macrobiota carbon and alkalinity fluxes, (4) extrapolation of those fluxes across space and time, (5) historical analysis of carbonate system measurements, (6) 3-D numerical modeling, and (7) a meta-analysis that extends findings to other systems. Mentoring and inclusion occur through the development of a research affinity group connecting existing regional undergraduate research programs. This research will advance the understanding of how macrobiota influence estuarine carbon and alkalinity dynamics and, ultimately, the large-scale marine cycles of carbon and alkalinity.

OA Research Highlights Around the Region: Part 2

The Mid-Atlantic Coastal Acidification Network’s (MACAN) Spring 2023 webinar closed on May 22, featuring, "OA Research Highlights Around the Region: Part 2". Watch the recording to learn more about social vulnerability analyses for the Atlantic sea scallop fishery and Chesapeake Bay oyster growers in relation to OA and other climate stressors, how a 3D estuarine-carbon-biogeochemistry model is being used to assess effects of projected coastal acidification conditions on oyster growth in Virginia tributaries, and how climate resilience of selectively-bred larval aquaculture broodstock compares to that of the wild Eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica. Our featured speakers include Dr. Samantha Siedlecki (UConn), Brian Katz (OSU), Catherine Czajka (VIMS), and Annie Schatz (VIMS).

Dynamic social ecological systems (SES) built around fishing stocks with potential for sustainable catch and flexibility to respond to changing environmental conditions are key to achieving multiple U.N. Sustainable Development Goals.
Atlantic sea scallops (sea scallops) have demonstrated the potential for sustainable yield, but are increasingly threatened by effects of ocean warming and acidification and the current management system is not climate ready. As calcifiers with limited mobility and high revenue potential, this fishery is particularly suited to a transdisciplinary approach combining coastal fishing community assessments with sea scallop population dynamics, ocean models, and sea scallop physiological response. The vulnerability and resilience of fishing communities to the effects of warming and ocean acidification (OA) on target species such as sea scallops is dependent on their adaptive capacity in relation to both social and environmental exposure and sensitivity factors.
In the Northeast United States, the contribution of sea scallops to total regional landed value has steadily increased over recent decades to more than $500 million per year. As a result, the dependence of the regional fisheries SES has shifted to this species. This dependence, and the predicted shift in sea scallop distribution and biomass decline, make this study particularly relevant. Here, we provide spatially explicit regional projections of changes within the existing sea scallop fishing zones based on ocean models and physiological assessment of the environmental conditions and likely impacts to scallop growth to harvest size. These projections have been combined with social indicators of fishing community vulnerability and reliance to structure workshops with fishery managers and fishing-dependent communities. The workshops assist stakeholders to explore scenarios to become more resilient to future change. Challenges, lessons learned, and next steps toward achieving a transdisciplinary understanding of SES vulnerability in this fishery are explored.

Chesapeake Bay relies heavily on oyster aquaculture, restoration, and harvesting by watermen for its economy and ecosystem. However, multiple stressors such as ocean acidification, changes in salinity, and temperature extremes threaten these livelihoods and have the potential to exceed social-ecological thresholds. This study integrates biophysical and social data using a top-down approach and spatialized interviews collected from the bottom-up to provide a comprehensive assessment of the factors affecting oyster livelihoods in Chesapeake Bay.
We used a random forest regression analysis to identify the relative importance of biogeochemistry and species responses on Eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) aquaculture production, revealing that salinity was the most significant predictor, followed by water temperature and dissolved oxygen. Low salinity events coincide with reductions in calcite saturation state, leading to negative impacts on oyster growth and calcification and subsequent declines in production. We also conducted spatialized interviews with aquaculture producers and restoration partners to contextualize and validate our analysis, collecting qualitative data on observed stressors and responses.
Our interviews revealed that growers are concerned about the potential impacts of low salinity events and multiple stressors, and that some social-ecological thresholds may be exceeded if these impacts continue to intensify. However, we also found evidence of adaptive capacity, as growers are implementing measures such as diversifying their livelihoods and investing in new technologies to mitigate the effects of stressors.
Our study highlights the need for integrated and interdisciplinary approaches to managing Chesapeake Bay oyster livelihoods that consider the complex interactions between biophysical and social factors and account for adaptive capacity. Our findings can inform management strategies aimed at promoting sustainable oyster production and restoration in the face of multiple stressors, including ocean acidification.

Anthropogenic climate change and its associated impacts on water quality challenge marine species to acclimatize to their altered environment, particularly in estuarine and coastal systems. Increasing oceanic uptake of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and greater riverine nutrient loads cause decreases in seawater pH and saturation states (W) of calcium carbonate, a phenomenon known as coastal acidification. Due to the natural spatiotemporal variability of biogeochemistry in estuarine systems like the York River, the effects of acidification and other interacting climate change drivers, such as atmospheric warming, will likely not be uniform throughout the bay. Furthermore, it is still unclear in which regions calcifying organisms, like Eastern oysters, will be most vulnerable to future conditions.
To determine how future coastal acidification and atmospheric warming will affect carbonate chemistry and oyster growth in the York River, simulations were run using an oyster bioenergetics model embedded in a 3-D coupled hydrodynamic-biogeochemistry model. Specifically, model runs forced with future (mid-21st century) atmospheric CO2 alone, future atmospheric warming alone, and both forcings together were compared with a realistic 2016 reference run. While increased atmospheric CO2 reduced ambient W and slowed oyster shell growth, atmospheric warming offset this effect and, in some areas, led to an overall increase in shell growth. The results of this work will be used to inform stakeholders of which areas in the Bay will be most suitable for oyster aquaculture and restoration in the future.

Eastern oysters (Crassostrea virginica) provide ecosystem (e.g. 3-D reef structures) and economic (e.g. aquaculture) services to the Chesapeake Bay and other coastal areas. Oyster aquaculture is a growing industry, and the need for traits such as fast growth and disease resistance led to the development of multiple generations of selectively-bred and refined broodstock lines. Development and preservation of selected broodstock could affect various physiological processes in offspring that could potentially result in different responses to stress compared to their wild counterparts.
As environmental conditions within the Chesapeake Bay continue to shift warmer and more acidic – which are individually and simultaneously known to decrease shell and tissue growth, decrease energy stores, change metabolic pathways and affect development – responses to these conditions may differ between selectively-bred and wild oysters, potentially affecting their success in the future. Because larval oysters are considered the most vulnerable and sensitive life stage and therefore are already a bottleneck to the success of wild oyster populations and aquaculture production, my study exposed larvae from wild oysters and selectively-bred broodstock to four treatments composed of two temperature and two acidic conditions that represent average ambient and current extreme states in the mesohaline region of the Chesapeake Bay. Growth, biomass, cellular stress, and survival were measured throughout showing that larvae from wild oysters may be more resilient to warming and acidifying waters than those from selectively-bred oysters.

A Coupled Biogeochemical-Biological-Economic Modeling System to Quantify Climate Change Impacts on Oyster Aquaculture in Chesapeake Bay

Jeremy M. Testa, Matthew Weber, Wei-Jun Cai, Yijun Guo, Renjian Li, Ming Li, Chunqi Shen, Lisa Wainger, George Waldbusser

Climate change is projected to alter the mean and variability of a wide range of physical and chemical conditions in the coastal zone, many of which act as stressors to commercially-relevant organisms. Quantifying the impact on key organisms of these multiple stressors – many of which co-vary or influence each other – is challenged by limits in our experimental data and the lack of comprehensive modeling tools. Furthermore, the translation of stressor impacts on organism health to economic outcomes of business or coastal economic vulnerability has been slow to develop.
To begin the process of overcoming these limitations, we developed a coupled biogeochemical-biological-economic modeling system to quantify climate change impacts on oyster aquaculture in Chesapeake Bay. We applied a coupled hydrodynamic-biogeochemical model forced by downscaled global climate model projections to simulate historical and mid-century salinity, phytoplankton biomass, water temperature, and carbonate system parameters throughout the estuary. These bio-physio-geochemical model outcomes were used to estimate eastern oyster growth across different regions of Chesapeake Bay, and these growth outcomes informed a stochastic dynamic economic model of Chesapeake Bay aquaculture operations. In this presentation, we will highlight the complex interplay between acidification and other environmental stressors in impacting oysters and aquaculture economics.

Mitigating OA through Marine CDR: Opportunities and Challenges

MACAN's March 30, 2023 webinar "Mitigating OA through Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR): Opportunities and Challenges in the Mid-Atlantic Region." Invited speakers Dr. Wil Burns (Northwestern University), Dr. Grace Andrews (Vesta PBC), and Marty Odlin (Running Tide) will discuss the current policy framework for marine CDR in the Mid-Atlantic, innovative technologies being piloted on global to local scales, lessons learned from stakeholder engagement and permitting, and the challenges associated with scale and monitoring.

Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) strategies like Coastal Enhanced Weathering (CEW) sequester carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and store it permanently in the ocean as a form of dissolved carbon called alkalinity, in turn reducing ocean acidification. While CEW and other ocean alkalinity enhancement strategies are believed to have significant potential for scale, real-world trials have only just begun. This talk will discuss how CEW works to capture CO2 as well as lessons learned from the world’s first pilots, which are taking place on the US eastern seaboard, regarding permitting, stakeholder engagement, scientific outcomes, future challenges and more.

Since the Industrial Revolution, humans have moved more than 2.4 trillion tons of carbon from the slow carbon cycle (deep ocean, geological reservoirs, and inorganic material like rocks) to the fast carbon cycle (the atmosphere, biosphere, and upper ocean). This mass transfer — one of the largest and quickest in human history — has unleashed a Godzilla that is destabilizing Earth’s systems, rapidly pushing the ocean outside its Goldilocks zone for sustaining life. Coastal communities and marine ecosystems are already experiencing the devastating consequences of ocean acidification and warming.
The IPCC has repeatedly called for the removal of 660 gigatons of carbon in order to have a credible chance at stabilizing the climate, and the National Academy of Sciences has identified ocean carbon removal as one of the most promising pathways. In this presentation, Marty Odlin will discuss how Running Tide is utilizing a science-for-action framework to develop and deploy the capabilities needed to both remove carbon at global scale, and restore ocean and coastal ecosystems at the local level through interventions that include restorative aquaculture, macroalgae enhancement, wild shellfish bed restocking, and more.

The purpose of this presentation will be to focus on governance of marine carbon dioxide removal approaches. The presentation will discuss the role of international treaty regimes that have already intervened in this context, as well as others that may play a role in the future. It will also examine the role of U.S. domestic law at the federal and state level.

OA Research and Education Highlights around the Region

MACAN's “OA Research and Education Highlights Around the Region” webinar on March 2 featured speakers Fei Da and Abigail Sisti from the Virginia Institute of Marine Science. Da's research applied a modeling approach to examine impacts of extreme discharge events and climate change on the carbonate system of the York River Estuary. His work on forecasting calcite saturation states under future climate conditions can help managers evaluate potential shellfish restoration areas in the estuary. Sisti discussed lessons learned from scientist-educator partnerships to develop new ocean acidification education materials focused on American lobsters. Classroom activities for Grades 6-12 are available from <a href="https://vaseagrant.org/american-lobsters/">Virginia Sea Grant</a>.

This study uses a coupled physical-biogeochemical model to examine the impacts of extreme discharge events and climate change on the carbonate system of the York River Estuary, a tidal tributary of the Chesapeake Bay. The recent year-to-year variability in calcium carbonate saturation state (Ω) driven by changing river inputs is comparable to reductions due to 50 years of climate change. During recent record high river runoff events (e.g., May 2018), drastic reductions in Ω are associated with increased net community respiration and net advection of high dissolved inorganic carbon river water, with increased CO2 outgassing playing a minor counteracting role. These large disruptions have a lasting effect that can be measured up to one month after a single extreme event. Additionally, shallow shoals of the lower York River Estuary, where most oyster reefs are located, exhibit fewer days with Ω &lt; 1 and recover faster after a high discharge event compared to other locations within the estuary.

<img class="wp-image-5654 size-medium alignright" src="https://macancms.3lanemarketing.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/rsw_1280-1-300x300.webp" alt="" width="300" height="300" />
Building collaborative relationships between scientists and educators is an important step in improving climate change education. By providing real-world data and hands-on experiences, scientists can assist students in connecting marine processes with changes in marine and human communities. A recent project focused on understanding effects of ocean acidification on American lobsters is a strong case study for extended collaboration between scientists and educators. Three main tools were used to develop educational materials: an internship to provide hands-on research experience for science teachers, multimedia content for sharing information about the project, and the Virginia Scientist Educator Alliance (VASEA) to provide training for lesson plan design. Together, these project components can serve as a roadmap for scientists and educators looking to improve ocean acidification education.

Sea Grant OA Fellows Spotlight: Research Across the Mid-Atlantic Region

On March 23, MACAN held a webinar highlighting new research from five Mid-Atlantic Sea Grant Ocean Acidification Fellows. Research topics ranged from seasonal pH monitoring with glider technology, to numerical modeling of the effects of extreme events on carbonate chemistry in Chesapeake Bay, to the biological implications of acidification. The biological talks focused on examining the impacts of acidification on the energy budget of Atlantic silversides throughout their life cycle, exploring whether the water quality history of adult oysters can translate to increased larval acidification tolerance, and validating a cellular mechanism by which oysters can mitigate the effects of acidification.

Ocean acidification has subtle and complicated effects on fish because it often affects only the earliest life stages and interacts with other stressors. This project pulled together several types of data from multistressor experiments on Atlantic silversides, an abundant fish along the East Coast, to model their energy budget throughout the life cycle. Using Dynamic Energy Budget theory (DEB) we are able to incorporate different effects at each life stage to reflect the increased tolerance adults have relative to embryos and larvae. Energy budgets can help us test hypotheses about how energy is allocated to needs like homeostasis and reproduction under acidification, and ultimately estimate population-level effects.

We previously investigated the molecular mechanisms associated with resilience to ocean acidification in Crassostrea virginica. There were significant differences in SNP and gene expression profiles among oysters reared under normal and OA conditions. Both of these approaches showed similar results, particularly in genes related to biomineralization, including perlucin. In this study, we used RNAi or gene silencing to validate findings and confirm the protective role of perlucin associated with resilience to OA. Silenced oysters under acidification stress were the smallest, had shell abnormalities, and had significantly reduced shell mineralization, thereby indicating that perlucin does help larvae mitigate the effect of OA.

Better understanding the carbonate system variability during extreme events will help predict future changes and provide critical information for the local shellfish aquaculture industry. In this study, a coupled hydrodynamic-biogeochemical 3-D high-resolution model is used to investigate the primary controls of the carbonate system in a small sub-estuary of the Chesapeake Bay: the York River Estuary. Net horizontal advection, air-sea CO2 flux, and net community production all play crucial roles in controlling dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and pH, while total alkalinity is relatively conservative. During extreme high discharge events, pH reductions are associated with net heterotrophy and net advection of high DIC upstream water, with increased outgassing playing a counteracting role.

One species of calcifying organisms that could be pushed beyond their physiological limits due to future acidification is the eastern oyster, C. virginica, which provides the basis for an expanding aquaculture industry.  Previous studies have shown that oyster larvae are negatively impacted by acidification, but less is known about what level of acidification initiates a stress response and how well larvae can modulate these mechanisms. Additionally, little is known about potential differences in stress tolerance among different oyster populations. Therefore, larvae were compared between two different reefs within Chesapeake Bay to assess the hypothesis that reefs exposed to lower salinity conditions will be more tolerant to future acidification due to overlap in the cellular mechanisms responsible for osmoregulation and acid-base regulation.

Currently, productive coastal systems lack vertically-resolved high-resolution ocean carbonate system measurements on timescales relevant to organism ecology and life history. To address this issue, a newly developed deep ISFET (Ion Sensitive Field Effect Transistor)-based pH sensor system was modified and integrated into a Slocum G2 profiling glider. From Spring 2018 to Fall 2019, seasonal pH glider deployments were conducted in Atlantic surfclam (Spisula solidissima) and Atlantic sea scallop (Placopecten magellanicus) commercial management zones in the Mid-Atlantic Bight. Here, we present seasonal cycles and drivers of carbonate chemistry in the Mid-Atlantic Bight based on seasonal glider deployments. Additionally, we discuss the use of glider data in conjunction with larval dispersal models to identify times and locations where shellfish stock may be at high risk of acidification.

Creating a Coastal Acidification Module for Mid-Atlantic Teachers

On Feb. 28, MACAN held its first webinar of the season, "Creating a Coastal Acidification Module for Mid-Atlantic Teachers." Sarah Nuss, Education Coordinator for the Chesapeake Bay NERR in Virginia, and Greta Olsen, NOAA Hollings Scholar, shared work underway on a new educational resource for K-12 teachers.

Teachers on the Estuary (TOTE) workshops are held at each National Estuarine Research Reserve site every year. In an effort to include habitat change and impacts to our local environment, TOTE educators look to include coastal acidification into the information provided to K-12 teachers at these workshops. Come and learn about a new coastal acidification module underway for the Mid-Atlantic, created by a regional network of educators, and pilot tested with teachers last summer. We’ll include the current phase of the module, as well as next steps in its development and testing.

MACAN and OA Alliance 2021 Virtual Workshop

The majority of the Mid-Atlantic coastal states are pursuing ocean acidification (OA) action planning either as stand-alone efforts or as part of broader coastal/ocean planning efforts. Our Oct. 26 virtual workshop drew 85 participants from state and federal agencies, research institutions, NGOs and industry to help inform OA action planning in the Mid-Atlantic, identify data and information needs for management, and discuss ways our partners can work together to leverage and coordinate ocean and coastal acidification monitoring. Workshop participants also explored how the Mid-Atlantic Ocean Data Portal and MARACOOS OceansMap can be used to visualize current and past OA monitoring data and discussed lessons learned from the West Coast's regional monitoring inventory. The workshop recordings are available below. A summary report will be forthcoming.

State-Led OA Action Planning in the Mid-Atlantic

The webinar, hosted by MARCO (Mid-Atlantic Regional Council on the Ocean) and the OA Alliance, focused on state-led Ocean Acidification (OA) action planning in the Mid-Atlantic region, highlighting collaborative efforts to address OA through science, policy, and stakeholder engagement.
Key speakers included Massachusetts Representative Dylan Fernandez, who shared insights from the state’s OA commission, emphasizing enhanced monitoring, regulatory updates, and funding mechanisms like Maryland’s “flush tax” model. Jesse Turner of the OA Alliance outlined the importance of tailored OA action plans, linking science to policy and integrating OA into broader climate frameworks. Dr. Jim George detailed Maryland’s OA Action Plan, which prioritizes mitigation, research, and public engagement, while Megan Rutkowski discussed New Jersey’s progress, including joining the OA Alliance and developing a statewide monitoring network. Dr. Grace Saba from Rutgers University highlighted the need for coordinated monitoring to address knowledge gaps and species vulnerability. The webinar concluded with plans for a fall 2021 workshop to further regional coordination and stakeholder engagement, underscoring the importance of balancing monitoring efforts with adaptation and mitigation strategies to protect coastal economies and ecosystems.

Climate Change and Submerged Cultural Resources in the Mid-Atlantic

Although our maritime heritage is young compared to the Vikings', our country has thousands of cultural resources such as shipwrecks, shell middens, and sunken vessels from WWII, that lie under or adjacent to the  Mid-Atlantic's coastal waters. This presentation examines how different aspects of climate change, including ocean acidification, impact our heritage resources. It defines the diverse cultural materials affected, and considers the potential and resulting effects on archaeological research, the environment, and the economy. In addition, means of  addressing these effects, both active and proposed are discussed. One example involves a survey of archaeologists associated with government agencies, academic institutions, and non-profit organizations who all  placed ocean acidification in the top three most damaging climate change threats they face in their work. This has led to increased networking at a global level as we enter the U.N. Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development.

Responding to Change Perspectives from Commercial Shellfish Industry Members

Meredith White (<a href="https://www.mookseafarm.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mook Sea Farms</a>), Mike Congrove (<a href="https://www.oshoyster.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oyster Seed Holdings</a>) and Peter Hughes (<a href="https://www.atlanticcapes.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Atlantic Cape Fisheries</a>) shared their perspectives about the challenges related to ocean acidification facing the commercial shellfish industry and discussed the research and technology they've invested in to mitigate the impacts of acidification. Their presentations were followed by a Q&amp;A discussion with scientists Joe Salisbury, Jeremy Testa, and Daphne Munroe, whose areas of expertise focus on carbonate chemistry and how it relates to sustainable management of shellfish and aquaculture resources.

Acidification Effects upon the Atlantic Surfclam

Surfclam fisheries rely upon wild-caught populations that currently are managed sustainably and responsibly. This species, however, may be sensitive to physicochemical changes, such as ocean acidification, in the habitat. As elevated carbon dioxide effects upon juvenile surfclam physiology have not been reported, a 3-month laboratory experiment was carried out to investigate this interaction. 1,200 surfclams, either fed or unfed, were exposed to three pCO2 levels (576, 1405, 2203 ppm). Every other week, growth, as well as physiological rates (feeding, respiration, ammonia excretion), were measured. Results revealed an appreciable decline in shell length and mass growth proportional to pCO2 concentration.This decline can be attributed to reduced feeding (clearance rate, assimilation efficiency) and/or increased in metabolic activity (respiration, ammonia excretion). Finally, experimental data have been used to calibrate a DynamicEnergy Budget (DEB) model describing energetic fluxes within an individual under simulated environmental conditions. The model was adapted to include pCO2 effects upon physiological rates to project the consequences of varied pCO2 upon whole-animal bioenergetics.

State and Federal Ocean Acidification Policy Action

MACAN's Jan. 23 webinar focused on State and Federal Ocean Acidification Policy Action. With presenters Beth Turner of <a href="https://www.noaa.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NOAA</a> and Sarah Cooley of the <a href="https://oceanconservancy.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ocean Conservancy</a>.

The OADS and OCAD Projects (Series 3, Webinar 3)

MACAN's 5/8/19 webinar, “The Ocean Acidification Data Stewardship (OADS) and the Ocean Carbon Data System (OCADS) Projects" was presented by Liqing Jiang, a chemical oceanographer at <a href="https://www.noaa.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NOAA/National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)</a> and associate research scientist at the <a href="https://umd.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">University of Maryland</a>.
OADS was established in 2012 with funding from NOAA's Ocean Acidification Program (OAP). It features rich metadata management and covers all types of ocean acidification data, including chemical, biological, model output, etc. Currently, it only serves data producers from NOAA/OAP funded projects investigators only. OCADS was created in 2016 as NOAA’s replacement for the Ocean component of the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC-Oceans, Oak Ridge National Laboratory) which was closed on September 2016.
OCADS is focused on inorganic ocean carbon data only, but its audience is much broader. OCADS serves data producers from the entire international ocean carbon community. Both OADS and OCADS leverage the data management infrastructure at NCEI and at the same time maintain their own rich metadata management system to
<ul>
	<li>to help their PIs to meet their data management requirements, including the NOAA Public Access for Research Results (PARR)</li>
	<li>to help advance research towards the better understanding of Global Climate Change and Ocean Acidification.</li>
</ul>
Data access for both of the projects is provided through a newly established Ocean Carbon and Acidification Portal, which allows users to discover OA data from the entire NCEI's ocean archive. In addition, some synthesis results on the global distribution of pH and calcium carbonate saturation states were presented.

Profiling Glider (Series 3, Webinar 2)

Elizabeth (Liza) Wright-Fairbanks from <a href="https://www.rutgers.edu/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rutgers University</a> explains how her team integrated a new pH sensor into an ocean-profiling Slocum glider to monitor acidification in the Mid-Atlantic. She describes the multiple drivers of acidification—ranging from CO₂ absorption to nutrient runoff—and their effects on marine life, particularly shellfish, which are economically vital to the region. Traditional monitoring methods (fixed buoys and occasional research cruises) often miss short-term or subsurface low-pH events. By contrast, the glider’s “sawtooth” path can provide high-resolution data of the full water column over several weeks.
Early lab and field tests confirm that the integrated sensor achieves accuracy better than the manufacturer’s rating, although biofouling in warm, productive waters can pose challenges (e.g., barnacles). The team mitigates these by adding antifouling cartridges, scheduling mid-deployment cleanings, and optimizing flight paths. Future plans include seasonal deployments across shellfish grounds, with data feeding into fisheries assessments and informing models of larval distribution. This work underscores the promise of glider-based acidification monitoring networks on both regional and global scales.

Monitoring in the New York Bight

Like many coastal states, ocean acidification is a subject of deep concern for New York State. Bipartisan legislation created the New York State Ocean Acidification Task Force in late 2016 and ocean acidification is a major topic of concern as outlined in the New York State Ocean Action Plan released in 2017. The NY OAP contains sixty-one actions that will be implemented to achieve better-managed and healthier ocean ecosystems that will benefit people, communities, and the natural world.
To reach these long-term goals, the <a href="https://dec.ny.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NY State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYS DEC)</a> seeks to coordinate short-term actions that will guide State government funding, research, management, outreach, and education choices. Recognizing the need for better monitoring of carbonate chemistry in the coastal ocean, <a href="https://dec.ny.gov/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NYS DEC</a> funded a bold new plan to simultaneously monitor carbonate chemistry and the pelagic food web from zooplankton to whales. Cruises will be conducted seasonally over the next 10 years and these data will be combined with censuses of marine mammals, fisheries acoustics and data collected in other efforts using state of the art modeling and visualization. We present data from our first cruise conducted in July 2018 and discuss our ongoing plans to monitor carbonate chemistry at intense spatial and temporal scales in the New York Bight.

Managing Global Acidification on a Regional Scale

Managing Global Acidification on a Regional Scale: How the <a href="/">US Mid-Atlantic</a> and <a href="http://www.necan.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Northeast Coastal Acidification Networks</a> (<a href="/">MACAN</a> and <a href="http://www.necan.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NECAN</a>) Are Working to Understand Impacts through Partnerships.
The chemistry of the ocean is changing. Carbon dioxide released through emissions and deforestation is absorbed and dissolved into the ocean. The regional Coastal Acidification Networks of the US Northeast and Mid-Atlantic (<a href="http://www.necan.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NECAN</a> and <a href="/">MACAN</a>) are consortiums of scientists, marine industry, and resource managers with a central goal of sharing information to better understand the impacts of acidification to appropriately manage and adapt to these conditions. Coordinators for <a href="http://www.necan.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NECAN</a> and <a href="/">MACAN</a> will discuss how these regional efforts work towards identifying and pursuing opportunities to understand coastal and ocean acidification in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, building upon the skills and interests of individual members and providing a forum to share best practices in monitoring, sampling collection, and researching effects to collectively meet the challenges of our changing coastal and ocean waters.

MACAN Monitoring Plan Webinar

MACAN's Monitoring Plan Work Group (MPWG) is a sub-group within <a href="/">MACAN</a> working to develop a monitoring plan to help in understanding the trends of regional acidification that can be used as a framework for focusing monitoring efforts. The MPWG focuses on monitoring from estuaries, to coasts, to open ocean. This webinar, held 3/6/18, provided the <a href="/">MACAN</a> membership with an update on the progress of work done since September 2017.
