This study presents an explicit, multidisciplinary vulnerability analysis of coastal human communities to help to prioritize societal responses to ocean acidification. The study analysis focuses on shelled mollusks' harvests, which are likely to be harmed by ocean acidification. Results highlight the U.S. regions most vulnerable to ocean acidification, important knowledge and information gaps, and opportunities to adapt through local actions. This research illustrates the benefits of integrating natural and social sciences to identify actions and other opportunities while policy, stakeholders, and scientists are still in relatively early stages of developing research plans and responses to ocean acidification.
