A middle ground is the use of <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Mesocosms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Mesocosms</span></a>, essentially giant test tubes where conditions can be controlled. These can be small, or 8 m long like the Geomar KOSMOS mesocosms. Here, scientists changed the acid buffering of ocean water to see if it affected <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/zooplankton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>zooplankton</span></a> growth, carbon flux, or nutritional state. <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/Science" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Science</span></a><br><a href="https://phys.org/news/2024-12-plankton-marine-food-webs-alkalinity.html" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">phys.org/news/2024-12-plankton</span><span class="invisible">-marine-food-webs-alkalinity.html</span></a></p>
