Ocean acidification (OA) is one of the major symptoms of the current increase in atmospheric CO2. Here, we present results from a mesocosm experiment carried out during 113 days in the Gullmar Fjord, Skagerrak coast of Sweden, studying plankton responses to predicted end-of-century pCO2 levels. Abundances of both copepods (Pseudocalanus acuspes, Temora longicornis, and Oithona similis) and hydromedusae (Hybocodon prolifer and Aglantha digitale) responded to pCO2. Furthermore, stage-specific pCO2 sensitivities were detected in copepods, copepodites being the most sensitive stage. ... : Supplement to: Algueró-Muñiz, Maria; Alvarez-Fernandez, Santiago; Thor, Peter; Bach, Lennart Thomas; Esposito, Mario; Horn, Henriette G; Ecker, Ursula; Langer, Julia A F; Taucher, Jan; Malzahn, Arne; Riebesell, Ulf; Boersma, Maarten (2017): Ocean acidification effects on mesozooplankton community development: results from a long-term mesocosm experiment.
