Service Description: This dataset depicts where monitoring of one or more parameters to measure ocean, coastal, and estuarine acidification is being conducted in the Mid-Atlantic. As there is no widely accepted method yet to measure acidification (Co3-2) directly, it is calculated from two of the four commonly measured parameters (pH, pCO2, dissolved inorganic carbon [DIC] and total alkalinity [TA]) with known thermodynamic constants. The dataset comes from a variety of sources including state governments and academia whom measure acidification parameters. These data are meant to compile information about the sites that monitor acidification to assist in the development of a robust monitoring network in the Mid-Atlantic as per the goals of the Mid-Atlantic Coastal Acidification Network (MACAN). This map does not compile the monitoring data itself, but does link to the monitoring data where possible. This map is regularly updated as additional information about monitoring sites continues to emerge and develop. If you have additional information that you think should be included in this map, please contact
info@MidACAN.org.
This dataset was updated on the Portal viewer in October 2023.
NOTE: Some monitoring site point locations have multiple records in the dataset representing different sampling events occurring at the exact same location over multiple years, or even within the same year. These different sampling events sometimes also measured different parameters. The total count of overlapping records/points for a single location are tallied in the 'Number of Samples at Location' attribute in the data.

Title: Ocean Acidification Data, version 202309, DRAFT FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY
Author: Mid-Atlantic Coastal Acidification Network (MACAN); web service published by the Mid-Atlantic Ocean Data Portal
Comments: These data comprise the locations and methods of ocean and coastal acidification monitoring in the Mid-Atlantic. As there is no widely accepted method yet to measure acidification (CO3-2) directly, it is calculated from two of the four commonly measured carbonate system parameters (pH, pCO2, dissolved inorganic carbon [DIC] and total alkalinity [TA]) with known thermodynamic constants. This dataset is meant to compile information about the sites that monitor acidification to assist in the development of a robust monitoring network in the Mid-Atlantic as per the goals of the MidAtlantic Coastal Acidification Network (MACAN) and the Mid-Atlantic Regional Planning Body in the Mid-Atlantic Regional Ocean Action Plan. This map does not compile the monitoring data itself, but does link to the monitoring data when it is publicly available. The data come from a variety of publicly available sources including state governments and academic institutions, as well as from a 2022 MACAN survey of the Coastal and Ocean Acidification (COA) monitoring community. This map is regularly updated as additional information about monitoring sites continues to emerge and develop. If you have additional information that you think should be included in this map, please contact info@MidACAN.org.
This compilation is version October 2023, and is presented in the MARCO Mid-Atlantic Ocean Data Portal.
