This project focuses on understanding how the microalgae Emiliania huxleyi adapts to climate change and ocean acidification. By studying its genetic diversity and ecological distribution, the research aims to uncover how this key species can survive in increasingly stressful marine environments.
The major problem of the global ecology is the abrupt increase of carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in Earth's atmosphere.
As one of the most critical effects of burning fossil carbon by human action is the rapid acidification of the oceans.
Indeed the CO2 diffuses into the surface layers of the global ocean, including causing a significant decrease in pH and carbonate ion (CO3-).
These acidic conditions make biomineralization of calcareous shell increasingly difficult, threatening biodiversity…
