Training Course on Ocean Acidification

The training course was organized by the the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the Center for Scientific Research and Higher Education of Ensenada (CICESE) and the Autonomous University of Baja California (UABC).

The purpose of the course was to train early-career scientists from the Latin America and the Caribbean region entering the ocean acidification field, with the goal being to assist them in setting up pertinent ocean acidification experiments.

The course sought to increase participants' capacity to measure and study ocean acidification, and to strengthen networking among scientists working on ocean acidification in the Latin America and the Caribbean region. Moreover, it supported the initiation/deepening of the connections with the Global Ocean Acidification Observing Network (GOA-ON).
