Good point about OA. I couldn’t find what the control was in the pteropod study. What are they comparing them against?

Also looks like OA isn’t uniformly bad. Some species seem to thrive: https://www.whoi.edu/oceanus/feature/ocean-acidification-a-r...

No clue. I was just using it as an example.

Sure, that's why the harm is measured in terms of entire ecologies, not individual species.
