From: Pteropods make thinner shells in the upwelling region of the California Current Ecosystem
Percentage surface area with dissolution marks (%) and average shell thickness of the individual shells. Each dot represents an individual pteropod shell analyzed for both average shell thickness and dissolution marks. Circles indicate individuals from nearshore stations with strong upwelling conditions (grey), and offshore stations with less intense upwelling conditions (white). See Fig. 4 for examples of dissolution marks, Fig. S5 for specific graphs of the three different dissolution types, and Fig. S8 for an illustration of the calculation method.
