The role of irradiance and C-use strategies in tropical macroalgae photosynthetic response to ocean acidification

Abstract Fleshy macroalgae may increase photosynthesis with greater CO2 availability under ocean acidification (OA) and outcompete calcifying macroalgae important for tropical reef accretion. Macroalgae use energy-dependent carbon concentrating mechanisms (CCMs) to take up HCO3 −, the dominant inorg...
