Effects of ocean acidification on the survival and growth of young-of-the-year golden king crab (Lithodes aequispinus) observed in laboratory experiments for the Effects of Ocean Acidification on Federally Managed Crab Species in Alaska project from 2014-04-14 to 2014-08-19 (NCEI Accession 0243465)
In this study, we examined how CO2-driven acidification affected the growth and survival of juvenile golden king crab (Lithodes aequispinus), an important fishery species in Alaska. Juveniles were reared from larvae in surface ambient pH seawater at the Kodiak Laboratory. Newly molted early benthic instar crabs were …
