| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As carbon dioxide concentration in the surface water increases with the increase in the atmosphere, the ocean surface water becomes acidified. When seawater becomes acidified, the biomass of phytoplankton and zooplankton inhabiting in the surface decreases and the species composition also changes. Plankton is a group of organisms that form the basis of the ocean's food food chain, and the decline and compositional changes of the group make it difficult to maintain the current marine ecosystem. Condidering future marine environmental changes, we studied phytoplankton and zooplankton in the Antractic Ocean.
