Article Synopsis
- California's coastal ecosystems are facing potential shifts due to climate change, which may harm fish populations essential for recreation and commerce.
- This study focuses on the impact of CO2-acidification and hypoxia on juvenile rockfish and cabezon, testing their responses at different CO2 and oxygen levels over 1 and 3 weeks.
- Initial findings show that rockfish experience significant metabolic changes and behavioral shifts after just one week in elevated CO2 and hypoxic conditions, but their responses seem to stabilize over time, suggesting a degree of resilience to these environmental stressors.
