Net Community Metabolism and Seawater Carbonate Chemistry Scale Non-intuitively with Coral Cover
Coral cover and reef health have been declining globally as reefs face local and global stressors including higher temperature and ocean acidification (OA). Ocean warming and acidification will alter rates of benthic reef metabolism (i.e., primary production, respiration, calcification, and CaCO3 di...
