The impact of environmental acidification on the microstructure and mechanical integrity of marine invertebrate skeletons

Ocean acidification (OA), from seawater uptake of anthropogenic CO(2,) has a suite of negative effects on the ability of marine invertebrates to produce and maintain their skeletons. Increased organism pCO(2) causes hypercapnia, an energetically costly physiological stress. OA alters seawater carbon...
