How are oyster larvae affected by ocean acidification?
Oyster larvae are highly vulnerable to ocean acidification. The increased acidity of the water makes it harder for larvae to build their shells as it reduces the availability of calcium carbonate, a key building block. This can lead to slower growth and weakened shells, making the larvae more susceptible to predation and other stresses. Overall, ocean acidification poses a significant threat to oyster populations and the ecosystems they support.
