TABLE 1.
Carbonate system parameters of control and experimental tanks. The pH was measured daily for each of the four control and four experimental tanks, (n = 29 per tank), Alkalinity and salinity were measured weekly including day one and the last day of the experiments (n = 6 per tank). Means are presented with ± as standard error.
| Treatment | pCO2 (µatm) | pH | Alkalinity (µmol kg−1) | Salinity (PSU) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Control | 1,083 ± 48 | 7.621 ± 0.019 | 2068 ± 7 | 30 ± 0.4 |
| Elevated CO2 | 1767 ± 94 | 7.422 ± 0.022 | 2066 ± 4 | 30.1 ± 0.4 |
