Antarctic regions are natural laboratories to study biodiversity and the impact of climate change. In Antarctica, some marine ecosystems are particularly vulnerable to the ocean acidification due to an excess of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere. Studying the Antarctic bryozoans, marine invertebrates that live in colonies and make mineralized skeletons, can create new views to understand the effects of global ocean acidification.
