AGU Meeting of the Americas Session

We invite contributions to the 2010 AGU Meeting of the Americas (8–13 August at Foz do Iguaçu , Brazil) session: OS03. Assessment of climate change through biogeochemical oceanographic time-series observations. The ocean's capacity for carbon storage, marine biogeochemical cycles, and ecosystem health are affected by natural and anthropogenic changes, which can vary over a range of time and space scales. These changes can only be detected and understood through frequent observations collected over long time periods. In this session we invite contributions from open ocean and coastal time-series studies focusing on biogeochemical processes, to help understand variations in ocean processes and their susceptibility to a changing climate.
Conveners: Yrene Astor, Milton Kampel, Laura Lorenzoni, and Frank Muller-Karger
