Oxidative Stress and Digestive Enzyme Activity of Flatfish Larvae in a Changing Ocean.

Until now, it is not known how the antioxidant and digestive enzymatic machinery of fish early life stages will change with the combined effects of future ocean acidification and warming. Here we show that high pCO2 (~1600 μatm) significantly decreased metabolic rates (up to 27.4 %) of flatfish larv...
