Combined effects of ocean acidification and heat waves on the commercially valuable bivalve Callista chione
reserved The increasing concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, due to the consumption of fossil fuels, is causing climatic changes, such as ocean acidification (OA) and marine heat waves (MHW), which represent a threat for several marine species with both an ecological and economical relevance. In...
