In aquatic environments, plastic pollution occurs concomitantly with anthropogenic climate
stressors such as ocean acidification. Within the Southern Ocean, Antarctic krill (Euphausia …

Abstract Exponentially rising CO 2 (currently~ 400 μatm) is driving climate change and
causing acidification of both marine and freshwater environments. Physiologists have long …

The effects of ocean acidification, a major anthropogenic impact on marine life, have been
mainly investigated in laboratory/mesocosm experiments. We used the CO 2 vents at Ischia …

With increasing production from nanotechnology industries, nanomaterials are inevitably
released into the aquatic environment, thereby posing a potential risk to aquatic organisms …
