We conducted a medium-term (4 months) multiple stressor experiment with the cold-water coral Desmophyllum dianthus under future environmental conditions (IPCC RCP 8.5 scenarios for 2100), and sediment plumes generated during the potential extraction of seafloor massive sulphides. The experiment foll...
