Experimental assessment of cumulative temperature and UV-B radiation effects on Mediterranean plankton metabolism

Experimental assessment of cumulative temperature and UV-B radiation effects on Mediterranean plankton metabolism

The Mediterranean Sea is a vulnerable region for climate change, warming at higher rates compare to the global ocean. Warming leads to increased stratification of the water column and enhanced the oligotrophic nature of the Mediterranean Sea. The oligotrophic waters are already highly transparent, h...
