Functional biodiversity loss along natural CO₂ gradients, Published online: 11 December 2018; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-07592-1

Locations in the ocean where CO2 naturally seeps from the seafloor can be used to infer potential responses to ocean acidification. Here the authors explore the functional composition of benthic communities along a natural CO2 gradient, showing a loss of functional diversity at high-CO2 sites.
