Description 
Greenhouse gas emissions from human activities are projected to cause global climate change during the 21st century, creating novel challenges for coastal and marine ecosystems. This workshop, followed by a two-day conference, is centered on current understanding of the interplay of physical and chemical factors in controlling biological production in coastal tropical waters and the impacts of climate change.
