Elevated temperature and carbon dioxide levels alter growth rates and shell composition in the fluted giant clam, tridacna squamosa

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Eric J. Armstrong from the DepartmentUniversity of have published the research work: Elevated temperature and carbon dioxide levels alter growth rates and shell composition in the fluted giant clam, Tridacna squamosa, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports
• what: The authors investigated the effects of elevated seawater temperature and pCO2 on the mineral composition and organic content of shells of the fluted giant clam Tridacna squamosa (Lamarck, 1819) to improve the understanding of physiological mechanisms related to reduced calcification in giant clams under projected future ocean conditions.
• how: Unlike morphometric response variables . . .
