ones 21 . The third consequence of a significant reduction in aquatic ecosystem
productivity is reduced uptake capacity for atmospheric carbon dioxide, resulting in the
potential augmentation of global warming. While there is significant evidence that
increased UV-B exposure is harmful to aquatic organisms, damage on the ecosystem
level is still uncertain.
