About the Event
Dr Barbara Villa Marcos joins from the Faculty of Science at University of Nottingham. Representing the Society for Natural Sciences, Barbara will explore Ocean Acidification.
The session will begin by looking at how increased CO₂ emissions dissolve in seawater and the chemical process involved, before examining the effect on calcifying organisms such as shellfish, corals, and plankton and the cascading effects on marine biodiversity. Barbara will then discuss different mitigation strategies.
