| Abstract |
Ocean Acidification Research for Sustainability, OARS, is an endorsed Ocean Decade Action for the UN Decade of Ocean Sciences for Sustainable Development (2021-2030). Building on
the successful work of the Global Ocean Acidification Observing Network (GOA-ON), OARS fosters the development of the science of ocean acidification including the impacts on marine
life and sustainability of marine ecosystems in estuarine- coastal-open ocean environments. The programme’s activities aim to attain the Sustainable Development Goals Target 14.3 “Minimize and address the impacts of Ocean Acidification, including through enhanced scientific cooperation at all levels” and provides a roadmap for ocean acidification research for the next Decade. The vision for all seven Outcomes 1-7 as detailed over the course of this technical report will initiate the implementation phase of OARS in a coherent and inclusive manner, aiming to engage a broader community in producing and using ocean acidification research for sustainability. |
