Description
Summary:. The observed threefoldchanges in &#937 ARAG shown here over a few months are of thesame order of magnitude as those conditions used in artificiallaboratory CO2 experiments. This makes the Antarcticcoastal oceans a perfect natural mesocosm to investigateresilience of Southern Ocean marine ecosystems to oceanacidification.
