Plankton that form tiny calcium carbonate shells will be cultured to determine how they will respond to acidification of the Southern Ocean caused by rising CO2 in the atmosphere. The same experiments will be used to gauge from their fossil shells how the Southern Ocean has caused and responded to changing atmosphere CO2 over the last glacial climate cycle

将培养形成微小碳酸钙外壳的浮游生物，以确定它们将如何应对大气中二氧化碳上升引起的南大洋酸化。同样的实验将被用来从它们的化石外壳中测量南大洋是如何在上一次冰川气候周期中引起和应对大气二氧化碳变化的。
