Moderate seawater acidification does not elicit long-term metabolic depression in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis
2010
Shell growth of blue mussels from the Baltic Sea decreased under ocean acidification conditions. Data suggest that the reduced shell growth under severe acidification did not result from metabolic depression but from increased cellular energy demand and nitrogen loss. (Laboratory study)
