Figure 2

Effects of static pCO2 × DO conditions on survival and growth of early life M. menidia. Schematics of static DO (normoxic, reduced DO and hypoxic; A,B) and pCO2 (control, intermediate and extreme; C,D) conditions from nine treatments in each experiment. Embryo survival (%; E,F), larval survival (%; G,H), hatch length (mm; I,J) and growth rate (mm day−1; K,L) from M. menidia offspring reared under three static pCO2 levels crossed with four static DO concentrations from experiments one (left column) and two (right column). Values are treatment means ± S.E. Different lowercase letters represent significant interactions of pCO2 and DO conditions.
