Effect of high temperature (+ 3 °C than ambient) and high pCO2 (1000 µatm) on respiration and ammonium excretion rates of sea urchin Tripneustes gratilla. (a) Respiration rate and (b) ammonium (NH4+) excretion rate of T. gratilla fed with experimental (black) and control (white) seagrass. Values represent mean ± SD. Ambient temperature and Control pCO2 (experimental seagrass: n = 9, control seagrass: n = 9), Ambient temperature and High pCO2 (experimental seagrass: n = 9, control seagrass: n = 9), High temperature and Control pCO2 (experimental seagrass: n = 9, control seagrass: n = 8), High temperature and High pCO2 (experimental seagrass: n = 8, control seagrass: n = 8). Different letters indicate statistically significant among conditions (Tukey’s HSD post-hoc test).
