Determining a threshold in effect of ocean acidification on crustose coralline algae (including a case study to teach at school)
2010/2011 The recent and steady CO2 increase, mainly due to human activities, causes a shift in the chemical equilibrium of the carbonates dissolved in sea-water, which results in a lowering of pH level. This phenomenon, known as ocean acidification, interacts with many physiological processes, incl...
