The ocean carbon sink – impacts, vulnerabilities, and challenges
Posted on OA: 15 Dec 2014 Carbon dioxide (CO2) is, next to water vapour, considered to be the most important natural greenhouse gas on Earth. Rapidly rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations caused by human actions such as fossil-fuel burning, land-use change or cement production over the past 250 years have
First evidence of altered sensory quality in a shellfish (northern “pink” shrimp) exposed to decreased pH relevant to ocean acidification
Posted on OA: 10 Dec 2014 Understanding how seafood will be influenced by coming environmental changes such as ocean acidification is a research priority. One major gap in knowledge relates to the fact that many experiments are not considering relevant end points related directly to production (e.g., size, survival)
