Ocean Acidification Effects on Atlantic Cod Larval Survival and Recruitment to the Fished Population
Fig 2
Recruitment functions under baseline and under ocean acidification scenarios for (a) the Barents Sea cod and (b) the Baltic Sea cod.
The baseline scenario is based on no OA and spawning stock biomass at ICES precautionary biomass levels (BPA) in dependence of the duration of OA-induced mortality. For better visualization a different scaling on the second y-axes was chosen for the impacted recruitment.
