The effects of acidic seawater on three species of lamellibranch mollusc

Three species of commercial bivalve mollusc, Ostrea edulis, Crassostrea gigas and Mytilus edulis, were maintained in seawater over a pH range of 5.4–8.2 (control), normally for 30 days. Significant mortalities occurred in C. gigas at pH
