Multiple impacts of ocean acidification on calcifying marine invertebrates

Increasing anthropogenic atmospheric CO₂ is altering the chemistry of surface seawater worldwide, resulting in ocean acidification. Experiments have begun to demonstrate the detrimental consequences that a CO₂-mediated decline in ocean pH can have on the growth and survival of calcifying organisms....
