Impact of anthropogenic ocean acidification on thermal tolerance of the spider crab Hyas araneus
Author(s):

Thermal sensitivity of spider crabs, as indicated by heart rate, rose under increasing levels of ocean acidification conditions. The results suggest a narrowing of the spider crab's thermal window under moderate increases in ocean acidification. (Laboratory study)
