The Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Marine Food Quality and Its Potential Food Chain Consequences

The Impacts of Ocean Acidification on Marine Food Quality and Its Potential Food Chain Consequences

Dissolution of anthropogenic CO2 into the oceans results in ocean acidification (OA), altering marine chemistry with consequences for primary, secondary, and tertiary food web producers. Here we examine how OA could affect the food quality of primary producers and subsequent trophic transfer to seco...
