Interacting effects of ocean acidification and warming on growth and DMS‐production in the haptophyte coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi
Abstract The production of the marine trace gas dimethyl sulfide ( DMS ) provides 90% of the marine biogenic sulfur in the atmosphere where it affects cloud formation and climate. The effects of increasing anthropogenic CO 2 and the resulting warming and ocean acidification on trace gas production i...
