Alleviation of mercury toxicity to a marine copepod under multigenerational exposure by ocean acidification

Abstract Ocean acidification (OA) may potentially modify the responses of aquatic organisms to other environmental stressors including metals. In this study, we investigated the effects of near-future OA (pCO2 1000 μatm) and mercury (Hg) on the development and reproduction of marine copepod Tigriopu...
