Influence of ocean acidification on otolith calcification and behavior in fish larvae
The PhD dissertation investigated the influence of ocean acidification on the calcification of otoliths in fish larvae and the possible consequences on the larval swimming behavior. As more carbon dioxide is emitted into the atmosphere, the pH of the world's oceans will decrease causing a probl...

The PhD dissertation investigated the influence of ocean acidification on the calcification of otoliths in fish larvae and the possible consequences on the larval swimming behavior.

The vulnerability of otolith calcification is dependent on the ability of the species to counteract the effects of lower pH through acid-base regulation. The dissertation reports an increase in otolith growth in Atlantic cod larvae but a decrease in otolith growth in Atlantic herring larvae.
