Photosynthetic responses of <i>Emiliania huxleyi</i> to UV radiation and elevated temperature: roles of calcified coccoliths

Changes in calcification of coccolithophores may affect their photosynthetic responses to both, ultraviolet radiation (UVR, 280–400 nm) and temperature. We operated semi-continuous cultures of <i>Emiliania huxleyi</i> (strain CS-369) at reduced (0.1 mM, LCa) and ambient (10 mM, HCa) Ca&l...
