Southeast Alaska Tribes Address Ocean Acidification Through Data Collection and Adaptation Planning
SEATOR.org discusses the threat of ocean acidification to Southeast Alaska's marine ecosystem, which is critical for local subsistence and livelihoods. The organization is proactively collecting continuous data on ocean parameters to develop a comprehensive adaptation plan. All data will be made publicly available through the Alaska Ocean Observing System database and shared with the Alaska Ocean Acidification network.
Key quotes
Ocean acidification threatens the entire Southeast Alaskan marine ecosystem – an ecosystem that we depend on both for subsistence and livelihoods.
SEATOR members have recognized the importance of reacting proactively to ocean acidification to reduce impacts to traditional food sources.
We will be collecting continuous data on several ocean parameters and using that data to write a comprehensive ocean acidification adaptation plan.
All of our data will be publicly available on the Alaska Ocean Observing System database and will be shared with the Alaska Ocean Acidification
