Coralline and fleshy algae volume density on epifaunal communities

Creator:

Field, Samuel J. and Gani, Christopher D.

Abstract:

Carbon dioxide emissions greatly affect the carbon chemistry mechanisms within the ocean. Carbon absorbed by the ocean, drops the pH level and creates an environment that is acidic. Acidic conditions prevent calcification mechanisms in coralline algae, and hinder their ability to establish within the intertidal. Coralline algae display structural relevance...
