“…Because of their sensitivity to ocean acidification, there has been a significant increase in research on this group over the past decades, including incubation experiments, studies on natural CO 2 gradients, and descriptions of the genetic variability within natural populations (see Manno et al, 2017). The impact of predicted future conditions on live specimens has been assessed using wide variety of parameters, including calcification (Comeau et al, 2009(Comeau et al, , 2010Maas et al, 2018;Moya et al, 2016), shell degradation (Bednaršek et al, 2012b;Bergan et al, 2017;Lischka and Riebesell, 2012), metabolic rates (Lischka and Riebesell, 2017;Maas et al, 2011;Seibel et al, 2012), respiration (Comeau et al, 2010;Maas et al, 2018;Moya et al, 2016), and gene expression patterns (Koh et al, 2015;Maas et al, 2015Maas et al, , 2018Moya et al, 2016;Thabet et al, 2017). Generally, previous studies have found that as the aragonite saturation state decreases, pteropod calcification rates decrease (Comeau et al, 2010(Comeau et al, , 2009Lischka and Riebesell, 2012).…”
