Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to participate in AGU Session OS021. The Carbonate System
Chemistry of Coastal Ecosystems: Physical, Chemical and Biological
Drivers. We are excited to have Wei-Jun Cai, Burke Hales, Andreas
Andersson, and Claudine Hauri give invited talks in this session.
Abstracts are due in *two weeks* by 6 August 23:59 EDT/03:59 +1 GMT
(http://fallmeeting.agu.org/2013).
We look forward to receiving your contribution and to seeing you in San
Francisco in December!
Any questions about this session, please contact:
Katie Shamberger, Aleck Wang, Simone Alin, Anne Cohen

OS021: The Carbonate System Chemistry of Coastal Ecosystems: Physical,
Chemical and Biological Drivers
Ocean acidification (OA) is changing the carbonate system chemistry of
the ocean with potentially profound impacts on marine organisms and
ecosystems. While the chemistry of OA is well understood, physical
processes and biological feedbacks complicate efforts to project future
conditions. This is especially true for the coastal ocean where
carbonate chemistry is strongly affected by complex circulation
patterns, high rates of biogeochemical cycling and terrestrial input.
This session highlights observational and modeling studies of the
chemical, physical and biological processes that control carbonate
chemistry of coastal environments from near shore to continental shelf,
including coral reefs.
