A red tide alga grown under ocean acidification upregulates its tolerance to lower pH by increasing its photophysiological functions

<i>Phaeocystis globosa</i>, a red tide alga, often forms blooms in or adjacent to coastal waters and experiences changes in pH and seawater carbonate chemistry caused by either diel/periodic fluctuation in biological activity, human activity or, in the longer term, ocean acidification du...
