Researchers studied six species of damselfish, two of which lived in live coral, two inhabited rubble (dead coral), and others could […]

Ocean acidification effects differ depending on the species’ sex 
Ocean acidification (OA) occurs with the increase of human-made carbon dioxide in the waters. The impacts of acidification on marine ecosystems have been studied extensively over the past decade, but little research has been done to look at intraspecific differences in reaction to increased CO2 levels. The present study reviews all data collected about the […]
