Rodolfo-Metalpa et al. (2010)

Net photosynthetic rate of a temperate coral (Cladocora caespitosa) grown for 30 days under normal and reduced pH conditions in winter. Temperature = 13.4°C, salinity = ~38 psu. pH was altered by the addition of CO2.

Rodolfo-Metalpa et al. (2010)

Net photosynthetic rate of a temperate coral (Cladocora caespitosa) grown for 30 days under normal and reduced pH conditions in winter. Temperature was increased 3 degrees from normal ambient winter values to 16.4°C. Salinity = ~38 psu and pH was altered by the addition of CO2.

Rodolfo-Metalpa et al. (2010)

Net photosynthetic rate of a temperate coral (Cladocora caespitosa) grown for 30 days under normal and reduced pH conditions in summer. Temperature = 21.7°C, salinity = ~38 psu. pH was altered by the addition of CO2.

Rodolfo-Metalpa et al. (2010)

Net photosynthetic rate of a temperate coral (Cladocora caespitosa) grown for 30 days under normal and reduced pH conditions in summer. Temperature was increased ~3 degrees from normal ambient summer values to 24.5°C. Salinity = ~38 psu and pH was altered by the addition of CO2.
