Calcification in a marginal sea – influence of seawater [Ca<sup>2+</sup>] and carbonate chemistry on bivalve shell formation
In estuarine coastal systems such as the Baltic Sea, mussels suffer from low salinity which limits their distribution. Anthropogenic climate change is expected to cause further desalination which will lead to local extinctions of mussels in the low saline areas. It is commonly accepted that musse...
