The Arctic Research Consortium of the U.S. (ARCUS) announces the third
event of its open Seminar Series, which will feature a presentation
entitled "Using an Environmental Intelligence Framework to Evaluate the
Impacts of Ocean Acidification in the Arctic." The event will be held in
the ARCUS D.C. office at 1201 New York Avenue, NW Washington D.C. on
Thursday, 31 March 2016 at 12:00-1:00 p.m. EDT.

The ARCUS Arctic Research Seminar Series brings some of the leading
Arctic researchers to Washington, D.C. to share the latest findings and
what they mean for decision-making. These seminars will be of interest
to Federal agency officials, Congressional staff, NGOs, associations,
and the public.

This seminar will be presented by Dr. Jeremy Mathis of the NOAA Climate
Program Office.

Seminar Abstract: The intensity and extent of ocean acidification in the
Arctic will increase rapidly as atmospheric CO2 levels continue to rise
making the region a bellwether for the global ocean during the next few
decades. The environmental changes brought on by ocean acidification
could pose a significant threat to Arctic ecosystems that are already
facing challenges from changes in sea ice distribution, warming, and
increased freshwater discharge. New ways of collecting and integrating
critical environmental intelligence will be discussed in the context of
developing resilience and adaptation strategies for dealing with ocean
acidification.

This event is a brown-bag lunch that will be held in the ARCUS D.C.
office (1201 New York Avenue, NW Washington D.C. Fourth Floor). Cookies
and beverages will be provided. A live webinar is also available to
those unable to attend in person. Instructions for accessing the webinar
will be sent to 'Webinar Only' registrants prior to the event.
