This assessment report presents the results of the 2018 Arctic
Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) assessment
of Arctic Ocean Acidification. This is the second such
assessment dealing with ocean acidification from an Arcticwide
perspective, and complements several assessments that
AMAP has delivered over past years concerning the effects of
climate change on Arctic ecosystems and people.
The main objectives of this assessment were to:
•• Update the understanding of chemical and biological
responses to ocean acidification since the first Arctic Ocean
acidification assessment in 2013.
•• Evaluate how ecological frameworks may respond to ocean
acidification.
•• Research socioeconomic and cultural consequences of
ocean acidification at selected case study regions.
•• Report on how Arctic Ocean acidification may impact on
downstream global systems.
•• Deliver guidance for management of change.
AMAP is a group working under the Arctic Council. The Arctic
