Crushed shells may shield shellfish from ocean acidification
Original: Crushed shells could help protect clams, oysters and mussels from ocean acidification
Researchers suggest crushed shells could help protect clams, oysters and mussels from ocean acidification, as rising carbon dioxide levels make seawater more acidic and harder for shellfish to build shells. Adding crushed shell material may buffer the water and support shell formation, offering a potential low-cost tool for coastal aquaculture and restoration efforts.
Why now: Ocean acidification is a growing threat to shellfish, and this proposed remedy offers a simple potential solution
