Travis Tai, on a new paper examining the possible socioeconomic effects of climate change and OA on fisheries Wilson is currently working for Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) on a Live Gene Banking program for Tai’s background is in OA, climate change, fisheries, biological responses, and integrated modelling. Wilson says that they also looked at how important fisheries were to local communities by looking at , fisheries at the southern portion of their range will be negatively impacted.

Happy Halloween! Here are some of the latest happenings in the world of ocean acidification in Canada and beyond! Paper of Interest: Check out this new Canadian paper! Frommel, A. Y., Lye, S.

The OA CoP at the 5TH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON THE OCEAN IN A HIGH CO2 WORLD: All presentations from this conference have temporarily been posted on the Symposium High CO2-Lima YouTube channel here. These videos will be featured on the channel until November 25th, don't miss out! The Canadian OA CoP attended this symposium and select side meetings. We gave an oral presentation about the activities of the OA CoP, how we formed, and the current projects we are undertaking. The conference was full of other wonderful presentations, posters, and plenaries (which can be seen on the High CO2 YouTube channel here). At the symposium, we attended the official GOA-ON side meeting: OCEAN ACIDIFICATION GOA-ON REGIONAL HUB COORDINATION WORKSHOP. In this meeting, we saw updates from all the GOA-ON Hubs and had the opportunity to discuss all of the wonderful resources that are offered through this organization. We encourage all of our members to join whichever GOA-ON Regional Hubs which is most relevant to them (Canada is included in both the North American Hub and the Arctic Hub). To learn more about GOA-ON please visit their website by clicking here! We also attended the side meeting: FROM KNOWLEDGE TO ACTION: COMMUNICATING OA SCIENCE TO POLICY MAKERS run by the OA Alliance and Ocean Foundation. This meeting saw discussions between international participants with the goal of identifying major steps that can be taken at the science-policy interface. To guide these discussions this workshop featured presentations from experts in the field, such as Jessie Turner Director of the OA Alliance, who gave insights into how this organization delivers projects on the science-policy interface. To learn more about these organizations we encourage you to visit the website for the OA Alliance here and the Ocean Foundation here.
