Short‐term modulations in external inorganic carbon (Ci) fluxes of Emiliania huxleyi in response to low dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC)/high pH (LDICH
pH; white bars), as well as carbonation (HDICH
pH; dashed, light grey bars), acidification (LDICL
pH; light grey bars) and the combination of both (HDICL
pH; dashed, dark grey bars): Chla‐normalized photosynthetic net CO
2 uptake (CO
2uptPS; a, b), photosynthetic HCO3
− uptake (HCO3
−uptPS; c, d) and the fraction of overall photosynthetic net Ci uptake that is covered by net CO
2 uptake (; e, f) were measured at low and high photon flux densities (PFD; 180 and 700 μmol photons m−2 s−1). Data are shown for the diploid life‐cycle stage acclimated to low and high light (2N LL, 2N HL). Note: in 2N HL, no data for the LDICL
pH condition were obtained. Error bar indicate mean ± SD (n = 3). Different lower‐case characters indicate significant differences between the fluxes obtained at different carbonate chemistry conditions and same PFD.
