The ecophysiological consequences of climate change on Arctic gadids. Implications for conservation.
Within the German ocean acidification research programme BIOACID (2012-2018) we investigated how the combined effects of ocean acidification and warming (OAW) affect different life stages and interactions between Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) and Polar cod (Boreogadus saida) and their prey.
