Insights into Marine Fish Physiology in a Changing World
Ocean acidification and global warming are largely caused by increased levels of atmospheric CO2, and marine fish are exposed to both these stressors simultaneously. Although the effects of temperature on fish have been investigated over the last century, the effects of moderate CO2 exposure and the...

Ocean acidification and global warming are largely caused by increased levels of atmospheric CO2, and marine fish are exposed to both these stressors simultaneously.
