Over-calcified forms of the coccolithophore <i>Emiliania huxleyi</i> in high-CO<sub>2</sub> waters are not preadapted to ocean acidification

Marine multicellular organisms inhabiting waters with natural high fluctuations in pH appear more tolerant to acidification than conspecifics occurring in nearby stable waters, suggesting that environments of fluctuating pH hold genetic reservoirs for adaptation of key groups to ocean acidificat...
