摘要
Worries about rising levels of CO2 in the atmosphere centre on the possible climatic effects. But there may also be direct adverse consequences: the calcification rates of corals and coralline algae, and now coccolithophorids (an important group of ocean-surface algae), have been shown to diminish in high CO2conditions.
