We are excited to announce the publication of our new paper "Ocean acidification in Canada: the current state of knowledge and pathways for action" in Frontiers in Marine Science! The paper synthesizes the current state of OA knowledge in Canada and provides recommendations to enhance OA knowledge and integration into decision-making in Canada.

The OA CoP participated in the GOA-ON North American Hub session at OA Week 2025!

We interviewed Dr. Andrea Frommel, lead author of a new study that investigated how juvenile Pacific salmon are impacted by ocean acidification and changes in food availability and how these impacts can be identified in wild fish.

Our July updates are here, including dates for OA Week 2025, Dungeness crab impacts, several recent Canadian studies, and OSM 2026 abstract calls!
