Morphological plasticity in a calcifying modular organism: evidence from an in situ transplant experiment in a natural CO2 vent system
Understanding is currently limited of the biological processes underlying the responses of modular organisms to climate change and the potential to adapt through morphological plasticity related to their modularity. Here, we investigate the effects of ocean acidification and seawater warming on the...
