OC51A:
Interdisciplinary Approaches for Understanding the Biological Consequences of Global Ocean Change I
Session ID#: 92413
Session Description:
As anthropogenic forcing of marine systems continues, biological responses will have dramatic consequences for the structure and function of marine ecosystems. Manipulative experiments, ocean observations, and quantitative models are three foundational research approaches for understanding the responses of marine species to future environmental change. Investments in biogeochemical tools and ocean observing time series, along with advances in ocean ecosystem and biogeochemical modeling, have afforded us a greatly improved perspective on global change in the ocean. This session will focus on the new generation of ocean environmental change studies that cross disciplinary boundaries. We welcome submissions that link manipulative experimental approaches in the laboratory or field with ocean observations, time series measurements, and/or quantitative modeling approaches as well as contributions that make connections across levels of organization (molecular to global-level processes), spatial scales (nm-km), and temporal scales (past, present, future). Suggested topics include (1) organismal response to changes in abiotic conditions (e.g. multi-stressors) over ecological and geological timescales, (2) links between environmental exposures and organismal performance, and (3) biophysical feedbacks.
