Abundances and morphotypes of the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi in southern Patagonia compared to neighbouring oceans and Northern Hemisphere fjords

Coccolithophores are potentially affected by ongoing ocean acidification, where rising CO2 lowers seawater pH and calcite saturation state (omega(cal)). Southern Patagonian fjords and channels provide natural laboratories for studying these issues due to This study was supported by the Comision Naci...

Summary:Coccolithophores are potentially affected by ongoing ocean acidification, where rising CO2 lowers seawater pH and calcite saturation state (omega(cal)). Southern Patagonian fjords and channels provide natural laboratories for studying these issues due to This study was supported by the Comision Nacional de Investigacion Cientifica y Tecnologica (now Agencia Nacional de Investigacion y Desarrollo) through FONDECYT grants 1181614 and 1140385), a doctoral fellowship CONICYTPCHA/Doctorado Nacional/2013-211301 FONDECYT REGULAR Proyectos de Investigación Agencia Nacional de Investigacion y Desarrollo [1181614, 1140385]; doctoral fellowship CONICYTPCHA/Doctorado Nacional [2013-21130158]; Iniciativa Cientifica Milenio through the Instituto Milenio de Oceanografia de Chile [ICN12_019]; Centro de Investigacio wos 19 18
