This article presents a laboratory analysis of the effects of increasing pH on the ability of these sea grasses to photosynthesize. In shallow environments, estimated reductions in each species were found to be relatively small and were even smaller in deeper regions.sea grassaquatic plantsphotosynthesispHprimary productioncarbonArticle
