Influence of changing carbonate chemistry on morphology and weight of coccoliths formed by <i>Emiliania huxleyi</i>
The coccolithophore <i>Emiliania huxleyi</i> is a marine phytoplankton species capable of forming small calcium carbonate scales (coccoliths) which cover the organic part of the cell. Calcification rates of <i>E. huxleyi</i> are known to be sensitive to changes in seawater ca...
