Facing rising temperatures, a spike in acidity driven by an influx of carbon, mass habitat destruction, and inescapable pollution, the world's oceans haven't had it easy. But in an ominously literal sense, the situation may be even darker than we realized.

Warming enhances the effects of acidification on aquatic biota: a global meta-analysis - Ocean Acidification

Aim: Global elevated atmosphere CO2 concentration-induced acidification poses a great threat to aquatic organisms worldwide. However, a comprehensive understanding of the response variability to acidification is still lacking, especially in the context of concurrent global warming. Addressing the response patterns of aquatic biota to acidification under the context of warming can facilitate the identification and […] The post Warming enhances th…
