A more acidic bay could make it more difficult for mollusks, such as oysters, to build their shells through a process called calcification. But it could help crustaceans, such as blue crabs, build their shells more quickly, said Justin Ries, a professor at the Marine Science Center at Northeastern University in Boston.
This could disrupt the evolutionary balance of the two, Ries said, because blue crabs prey on oysters.

Next is another tax for an ignorant "cure" for a problem that has no statistics to support it. Did anyone see any supportive statistics in this article? No? Really? Why not? Where is the link to the study? What study?
Just give us money and we will clean up the bay.
