Acid-base regulation in the sea urchin Parechinus angulosus during CO₂-induced seawater acidification

Ocean acidification is predicted to have adverse effects on the physiologies of marine organisms, particularly those that produce calcified structures. Extracellular homeostasis is considered to be critical to mediating the effects of ocean acidification. Due to their low metabolic rates and weak ab...
