    Media coverage:

    BDR interviewed for the radio show Hong Kong Today. The topic was the effects of ocean acidification on marine biodiversity, particularly the marine systems of Hong Kong.
    (http://news.rthk.hk/rthk/en/news-programmes/this-episode.htm?cmsid=77&episode_id=387713&livetime=20161123063000)

    Covered by three different Newspapers: Sing Tao Daily, Ta Kung Pao, and Wen Wei Po.
    All three articles were in Chinese with a combined readership of 482,000 people.
    The articles covered impacts of ocean acidification that are relevant to people of Hong Kong and southern China.
