The paper, titled ‘Stability of Strong Species Interactions Resist the Synergistic Effects of Local and Global Pollution in Kelp Forests’ tested whether a foundation species (kelp) would continue to inhibit a key competitor (turf-forming algae) under moderately increased local (nutrient) and near-future forecasted global pollution (CO2).
