This project investigates the impact of rising carbon dioxide levels on coral larvae and pteropods, both of which are vital for marine ecosystems. It aims to understand how increased acidity affects their calcification processes and symbiotic relationships, using physiological and molecular methods.
Ocean pH has already declined by 0.1 units since pre-industrial times and is predicted to further decline by another 0.3 units by the end of the century as a consequence of increasing anthropogenic CO2.
Reef-building corals and calcifying cold-water communities such as pteropods (molluscs), were identified as at higher risk.
This project will focus on the effect of rising pCO2 on two sensitive and complementary models:
Acropora millepora coral larvae and Limacina helicina pteropod.
Both construc…
