Ocean acidification affects the cytoskeleton, lysozymes, and nitric oxide of hemocytes: a possible explanation for the hampered phagocytosis in blood clams, Tegillarca granosa
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
An enormous amount of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) has been dissolved into the ocean, leading to a lower pH and changes in the chemical properties of seawater, which has been termed...

Impacts of elevated CO2 on organic carbon dynamics in nutrient depleted Okhotsk Sea surface waters
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Increasing CO2 in seawater (i.e. ocean acidification) may have various and potentially adverse effects on phytoplankton dynamics and hence the organic carbon dynamics. We conducted a CO2...
