CAOS FOR CORALS IN A CHANGING CLIMATE Coral reefs are threatened by climate change impacts—ocean acidification and warming temperatures driven by excess carbon dioxide—around the world. Fortunately, scientists from far and wide are able to study and address climate impacts using Mote’s state-of-the-art Climate and Acidification Ocean Simulator (CAOS) in the Florida Keys, which was abuzz with new studies this year despite the challenges of COVID-19. Mote’s CAOS system was filled to capacity with research projects in August and September 2020 and was otherwise busy during the past fiscal year, supporting the work of six Mote programs along with University of Virginia, Pennsylvania State University, Oregon State University, San Francisco State University, Utrecht University (Netherlands), University of Glasgow (Scotland), Louisiana State University, and College of the Florida Keys.
