Abstract
⺠We examined the effect of ocean acidification on red king crab embryos and larvae. ⺠Acidified water increased the size of embryos while decreasing yolk size. ⺠Hatch duration was increased under acidification but fecundity was unchanged. ⺠Larvae from acidified embryos were longer and had reduced survival. ⺠Calcium content was increased in both larvae and females in acidified water.
