Justin Ries is working with higher CO2 levels in sea water and how that effects animals.
Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 48, No. 1, pg. 7:
The urchin on the right, grown under present-day conditions, is healthy and has normal spines. The urchin on the left, grown under higher CO2 levels, is substantially damaged by more acidic seawater conditions.
