A Case Study: Variability in the Calcification Response of Mediterranean Cold-Water Corals to Ocean Acidification

3 pages The Mediterranean Sea has certain characteristics that make it especially sensitive and vulnerable to changes in atmospheric CO2 and its gradual acidification. Some of the organisms that may be the first to be threatened by this impact are the cold-water corals. The few studies carried out u...
