Dr. Yi-Wei Liu, Postdoctoral Fellow from Institute of Earth Sciences, Academia Sinica, and her international research team first apply boron isotopes, stable carbon and oxygen isotopes, and particulate inorganic carbon and particulate organic carbon content to investigate the impact from ocean acidification to coccolithophore species Ochrosphaera neapolitana. This research helps us better understand the mechanisms behind the highly varied calcification and growth responses from marine calcifying organisms to ocean acidification.The article was published in Nature Communications on July 20, 2018.
