Synergism between elevated <i>p</i>CO<sub>2</sub> and temperature on the Antarctic sea ice diatom <i>Nitzschia lecointei</i>

Polar oceans are particularly susceptible to ocean acidification and warming. Diatoms play a significant role in sea ice biogeochemistry and provide an important food source to grazers in ice-covered oceans, especially during early spring. However, the ecophysiology of ice-living organisms has recei...
