	note = {This Master{\textquoteright}s thesis on the effects of ocean acidification studies the issue from the perspective of the shellfish aquaculture industry. Ocean acidification is already putting pressure on shellfish growers. The industry has consolidated and seed is scarce. This makes it harder for small growers to keep going. As conditions worsen, various coping strategies will be needed.  In order to understand the issues, the author interviewed shellfish industry stakeholders from Washington to California.  A decision tree and a new data visualization tool were developed to assist the industry in choosing adaptive strategies. Shellfish growers had a lot to say, and their quotes are interesting and illuminating. The major professor was David J. Wrathall.},
