Statistical models to better link projection models of oceanic carbonate systems to reef-scale OA impacts
This project will entail a Pacific basin-wide carbonate chemistry analysis, presenting a synthesis of observed spatial and temporal patterns in the reef carbonate system across the Pacific. A post-doc (Heidi Hirsch) is building a statistical model to desc...
