Does ocean acidification affect the bioenergetics and susceptibility to pathogenic disease in juvenile Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii)?
This study examined how chronic exposure to ocean acidification affects the bioenergetics and immune functionality of juvenile Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii). Wild herring offspring were reared from hatch under three contrasting pCO2 treatments [low (~650 µatm), intermediate (~1,500 µatm), and hi...

Wild herring offspring were reared from hatch under three contrasting pCO2 treatments [low (~650 µatm), intermediate (~1,500 µatm), and high (~3,000 µatm)] to assess impacts on long-term growth, critical swim speed (Ucrit), and susceptibility to the viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV).
