E-Learn

E-Learn in Corvallis, OR is a department within Oregon State University's College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences. Led by Professor George Waldbusser, their research focuses on the effects of ocean acidification on bivalves, benthic ecology, and sediment biogeochemistry. They conduct funded research projects, such as studying the growth and survival of Olympia oysters with climate change and optimizing alkalization mechanisms of estuarine sediments for calcifying organisms.

E-Learn is dedicated to understanding the impact of climate change and ocean acidification on marine ecosystems, particularly in Oregon's estuaries. Their research aims to identify thresholds in coupled biogeochemical-biological-economic systems under multiple stressors and determine habitat suitability for oysters. They also investigate the response of various species, such as Dungeness crab and pink shrimp larvae, to ocean acidification scenarios. Through their research, E-Learn contributes to the scientific understanding of the effects of climate change on coastal environments and supports the development of sustainable management practices.
