Proton gradients across the coral calcifying cell layer: Effects of light, ocean acidification and carbonate chemistry
International audience In corals, pH regulation of the extracellular calcifying medium (ECM) by the calcifying cell layer is a crucial step in the calcification process and is potentially important to influencing how corals respond to ocean acidification. Here, we analyzed the growing edge of the re...
