Net rates of calcium carbonate accretion in the marinecoastal ecosystem complex of Ensenada Rancho Luna, Cienfuegos, Cuba
Due to the increasing emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the absorption of this gas by the ocean is carried out at great speed, causing an increase in the acidity of seawater. This process, known as ocean acidification, leads to a reduction in the ability of many calcifying organisms t...

Due to the increasing emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the absorption of this gas by the ocean is carried out at great speed, causing an increase in the acidity of seawater.
