CO2 enrichment enhances biomass density and C:N:P ratios in phytoplankton assemblage in the coastal water of the Taiwan Strait - Ocean Acidification

CO2 enrichment enhances biomass density and C:N:P ratios in phytoplankton assemblage in the coastal water of the Taiwan Strait - Ocean Acidification

Seawater CO2 concentrations are steadily increasing in the Taiwan Strait of the Southeast China, while the effects of rising CO2 on carbon fixation and elemental composition of phytoplankton assemblages in this area are still poorly understood. Here, we enriched the seawater CO2 concentrations to 808 μatm and above to simulate the CO2–induced ocean acidification, and investigated the effects […] The post CO2 enrichment enhances biomass density a…
