will lead to improved understanding of
the global biogeochemical processes of
ocean acidification and its impact on
marine ecosystems. Pursuant to section
12404 of the FOARAM Act, 33 U.S.C.
3703, a National Ocean Acidification
Program will be established to lead U.S.
coordination of ocean acidification
activities between the Federal agencies,
and with academic institutions,
industry, and other private sector and
international partners. A national ocean
acidification data management and
information exchange program will
ensure that ocean acidification
information reaches scientists, decision
makers, and the public in a timely
manner. Finally, the U.S. will join other
countries in establishing a robust
international research program to
address this global challenge.
acidification and developing
adaptation and mitigation strategies.
Theme 6—‘‘Education, Outreach, and
Engagement Strategy on Ocean
Acidification,’’ describes goals for
designing and coordinating
educational, public outreach, and
domestic and international
engagement activities, as well as
ensuring results and assessments of
monitoring and research efforts are
accessible to and understandable by
all stakeholders.
Theme 7—‘‘Data Management and
Integration,’’ discusses the need for
effective data management and
integration within the context of other
international, Federal, State, local and
private activities.

Acting Director, Office of Science and
Technology, National Marine Fisheries
Service.
Overview
The Plan is organized into seven
priority themes:
Theme 1—‘‘Monitoring of Ocean
Chemistry and Biological Impacts,’’
identifies sampling programs that
collect ocean acidification data, and it
prioritizes additional monitoring
systems necessary for adequate data
collection and monitoring.
Theme 2—‘‘Research to Understand
Responses to Ocean Acidification,’’
describes the goals and priorities to
understand the physiological
responses of marine organisms to
ocean acidification and its
interactions with other stressors, the
impacts to marine food webs, and
possible approaches to track
ecosystem responses.
Theme 3—‘‘Modeling to Predict
Changes in the Ocean Carbon Cycle
and Impacts on Marine Ecosystems
and Organisms,’’ summarizes
requirements and recommendations
for modeling ocean acidification, and
its impacts on marine organisms and
ecosystems, including codifying our
research understanding and studying
the interplay of factors affecting
marine ecosystems, thus permitting
analysis of the efficacy of adaptation
and mitigation strategies.
Theme 4—‘‘Technology Development
and Standardization of
Measurements,’’ describes goals that
ensure the ability to measure all
required parameters through
technology development and
adequate data quality via
measurement standardization.
Theme 5—‘‘Assessment of
Socioeconomic Impacts and
Development of Strategies to Conserve
Marine Organisms and Ecosystems,’’
focuses on assessing the
socioeconomic impacts of ocean
