Ocean acidification affects microbial community and invertebrate settlement on biofilms
Abstract Increased atmospheric CO2 is driving ocean acidification 2023 little mermaid cake (OA), and potential changes in marine ecosystems.Research shows that both planktonic and benthic communities are affected, but how these changes are linked remains unresolved.Here we show experimentally that decreasing seawater pH (from pH 8.1 to 7.8 and 7.4)
