Predicting consequences of ocean deoxygenation and ocean acidification for nearshore
marine ecosystems requires baseline dissolved oxygen (DO) and carbonate chemistry data
that are both high-frequency and high-quality. Such data allow accurate assessment of
environmental variability and present-day organism exposure regimes. In this study, scales
of DO and pH variability were characterized over one year in a nearshore kelp forest
ecosystem in the Southern California Bight. DO and pH were strongly, positively  ...
