The #ocean's function as the world’s largest bank, underpinning economies through #biodiversity and #carbon absorption. Yet short-term #exploitation and overlooked ocean #acidification are eroding #marine capital and risking systemic economic collapse. oceanographicmagazine.com/features/oce...
We're a week away from the BC #OceanAcidification and #Hypoxia Action Forum in Nanaimo! This gathering will unite across sectors to reflect on progress made, and chart next steps for OAH initiatives in BC.
Online registration is still open!

Text: Scientist Spotlight, Virginie Chalifoux, PhD Student, UBC. Virginie Chalifoux is a Ph.D. student in Applied Animal Biology in the Faculty of Land and Food Systems at the University of British Columbia. Her work explores the relationships between fish ecology and their responses to climate change stressors. Photo credit: Radio-Canada/Camille Vernet https://ici.radio-canada.ca/recit-numerique/12610/ocean-oeufs-biodiversite-poissons-cb. Picture: A woman with brown hair and a knit toque wears a black jacket and a life jacket and smiles at the camera. She is sitting in the bow of a zodiac on the water with steep tree covered hills and shorelines, typical of the Pacific northwest, in the background. The background for this graphic is a picture of a person’s hands cupping seaweed that is covered in small, gelatinous herring embryos, translucent eggs ~1 mm in diametre.
New post! In this #ScientistSpotlight, we interviewed Virginie Chalifoux, a PhD Student at UBC studying how the ecology of Pacific #salmon and #herring 🐟 can impact their response to #OceanAcidification.
