Nov 2 - Nov 4, 2021, British Columbia Fisheries & Aquaculture Ocean Acidification & Hypoxia Action Plan

Aim: To produce an environmental scan of what we know and what we need to know related to patterns, trajectories, and impacts of ocean acidification and hypoxia along the British Columbia coastal margin.

Outcomes: A synthesis with recommendations from the research community to address what we need to know with regard to ocean acidification and hypoxia to develop regionally relevant mitigation and adaptation strategies to support B.C. fisheries and aquaculture sectors. To effectively achieve a thorough environmental scan, we need to consider 4 key themes: (1) observing, (2) modeling, (3) biological impact, (4) mitigation and adaptation.
