Perturbing phytoplankton: response and isotopic fractionation with changing carbonate chemistry in two coccolithophore species

All species of coccolithophore appear to respond to perturbations of carbonate chemistry in a different way. Here, we show that the degree of malformation, growth rate and stable isotopic composition of organic matter and carbonate produced by two contrasting species of coccolithophore (<i&am...
