First ocean acidification mooring in the Gulf of Alaska at Station Papa Preliminary results show a clear seasonal trend in pH and a strong correlation with pCO 2 Note: pH scale is reversed Collaborative ocean acidification observing system on the U.S. west coast with support from international, federal and state agencies. Depends on a highly coordinated NOAA observations and modeling effort.

Friederich (MBARI) Goal: Approach: http://www.pmel.noaa.gov/co2/moorings Achievements: We are at nearly 20% of array design with 5 systems on TAO array, 3 in the North Pacific (including Papa) and 1 in the South Pacific. Develop an inexpensive, robust, accurate pCO 2 system that can be deployed on a variety of mooring and drifter configurations for up to a year at a time. To evaluate the temporal variability in air-sea CO 2 fluxes by conducting high resolution time-series measurements of atmospheric boundary layer and surface ocean pCO 2.
