Anthropogenic CO2 emissions have increased CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere and ocean, causing deleterious effects on Earth's climate and on marine biota by altering the radiation balance and ocean pH. The oceans take up 30-50% of the fossil fuel CO2 emitted to the atmosphere, thus dramatically reducing its greenhouse effects - at the expense of acidifying the oceans. Ocean acidification (OA) has potentially adverse effects for ecosystems and living marine resources, particularly calcifying organisms, services such as fisheries or aquaculture, and the related multimillion dollar industries and communities they sustain. I propose to investigate the vulnerability of living marine resources and related industries to ocean acidification (OA) in Canada, using

人为的二氧化碳排放增加了大气和海洋中的二氧化碳浓度，通过改变辐射平衡和海洋pH值对地球气候和海洋生物群造成有害影响。海洋吸收了30-50%的化石燃料排放到大气中的二氧化碳，从而大大减少了其温室效应-以酸化海洋为代价。海洋酸化对生态系统和海洋生物资源，特别是钙化生物、渔业或水产养殖等服务以及它们所维持的相关数百万美元产业和社区具有潜在的不利影响。我建议调查加拿大海洋生物资源和相关产业对海洋酸化的脆弱性，使用
