Diel Variability in Seawater pH Relates to Calcification and Benthic Community Structure on Coral Reefs

Community structure and assembly are determined in part by environmental heterogeneity. While reef-building corals respond negatively to warming (i.e. bleaching events) and ocean acidification (OA), the extent of present-day natural variability in pH on shallow reefs and ecological consequences for...
