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].
