Pontellid copepods, Labidocera spp., affected by ocean acidification: A field study at natural CO(2) seeps

CO(2) seeps in coral reefs were used as natural laboratories to study the impacts of ocean acidification on the pontellid copepod, Labidocera spp. Pontellid abundances were reduced by ∼70% under high-CO(2) conditions. Biological parameters and substratum preferences of the copepods were explored to...
