Habitat traits and food availability determine the response of marine invertebrates to ocean acidification
Abstract Energy availability and local adaptation are major components in mediating the effects of ocean acidification ( OA ) on marine species. In a long‐term study, we investigated the effects of food availability and elevated p CO 2 (ca. 400, 1000 and 3000 μatm) on growth of newly settled Amphiba...
