It was so interesting to see all the different ways to approach ocean change, particularly as someone who has some background in the effects of greenhouse gases. Have you found that your research findings inform each others’ work?

I really like the geographic and scientific diversity of these projects. It will be interesting to see how you all are able to integrate all of these topics into the larger picture. There could be some emerging interactions that others with narrower views may not have anticipated. Good luck with your projects!

I think the oceans of our world shape our existence…
I applaud you and your team for the effort put into your project so far, its only the tip of the iceberg as you are well aware already, great luck in your future.
I live in the arctic on the shores of the Chukchi sea,I’ve witnessed changes to the ocean here, it will challenge the oceans everywhere…

First hand observations like Bill’s are critical for documenting ocean change. In the words of Aqqaluk Lynge, chair of the Inuit Circumpolar Council, “Climate change is not a theory to us.”
