Sensory neuroscience meets climate change.

"Dungeness crabs hunt by flicking their chemical-detecting antennae to and fro. Sensing the water—the underwater equivalent of sniffing the air—is a well-known strategy for homing in on potential prey. But that timeless tactic appears to be at risk, as new research shows that climate-change-induced ocean acidification seems to cause Dungeness crabs’ antennae to falter."
