"Phytoplankton (from Greek phyton, or plant), autotrophic pro- or eukaryotic algae that live near the water surface where there is sufficient light to support photosynthesis. Among the more important groups are the diatoms, cyanobacteria and dinoflagellates."

The decrease in pH won't. Drop the pH below 7.5 and they die. If you weren't so profoundly ignorant, you would know that.
