Pteropod shell dissolution was determined on shells collected from 16 stations for the 2011 cruise and 20 stations during the 2013 cruise. The samples were stored in 90% buffered ethanol. Between 15 to 30 pteropods of Limacina helicina were picked from samples selected randomly. Following the method...
