How well will plants – and plant-like organisms – function with rising concentrations of levels of atmospheric CO2? And how will the increases in temperatures – associated with climate change/global warming – affect them? Given the importance of marine phytoplankton organisms to global productivity, understanding how those phytoplankters might be impacted by increased CO2 concentrations is of paramount importance.
