Researchers check a ‘mesocosm’, an eight-metre long floatation frame carrying a plastic bag with a capacity of 50 cubic metres. Nine of these mesocosms were deployed for a five-week long field study on ocean acidification conducted in the Kongsfjord off the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard. The results are published in the EGU open access journal Biogeosciences. (This image is free to use but attribution is required.)
