Acidification Alters Phytoplankton Chemistry, Shifting Ocean Carbon Cycles

Rising ocean acidity is quietly rewriting the rules of phytoplankton chemistry, with measurable shifts in cellular composition that ripple through global carbon cycles. This isn't a distant forecast, it is empirical change, now documented in peer-reviewed findings. Understanding these biological recalibrations is essential for calibrating climate models.
