Short summary

Red calcified seaweeds in UK rock pools have seasonal patterns in growth and photosynthesis driven by seawater temperature, light and the chemistry of rock pool water. This is important given future changes in environmental factors such as climate change and ocean acidification. Photosynthesis and calcification are strongly coupled and depend on light and temperature, whilst dissolution is regulated by rock pool water chemistry and is thus particularly vulnerable to environmental change.
