Abstract
- Although any national ocean acidification (OA) research program hasn’t yet been initiated in Korea, some OA related research projects have been carrying out. Therefore, we would like to introduce Korea’s OA research activities at this workshop as follow 1) study on biological and ecological responses under high CO2 world using the mesocosm facility, 2) real-time pCO2 monitoring program, and 3) estimate of air-sea CO2 fluxes in the Korean waters through ship-of-opportunity cruises. However, we strongly feel that it is time to launch the multidisciplinary national OA research program(s) in Korea. We hope that the outcome of this workshop could help us to convince Korean government and funding agency to initiate the national OA research program to better understand and monitor OA and furthermore to predict and minimize the damages from OA. And then, we can also play an important role in Global OA research community and programs.
