In addition,
ocean acidification is co-occurring with other drivers
of environmental change (including warming, eutrophication, hypoxia, eutrophication, pollution [12]-RRB-, yet the
interactive effects and relative importance
of multiple stressors on species physiology, life history and ecology, as well as species — environment interactions and ecosystem function remain poorly understood [13 — 17].
Here, using the longest experiment to date (542 days), we investigate how the
interactive effects of warming and
ocean acidification affect the growth, behaviour and associated levels
of ecosystem functioning (nutrient release) for a functionally important non-calcifying intertidal polychaete (Alitta virens) under seasonally changing conditions.
