Ocean acidification affects growth but not nutritional quality of the seaweed...
Understanding the ecological implications of global climate change requires investigations of not only the direct effects of environmental change on species performance but also... -
The effects of thermal and high-CO2 stresses on the metabolism and surroundin...
The effects of elevated temperature and high pCO2 on the metabolism of Galaxea fascicularis were studied with oxygen and pH microsensors. Photosynthesis and respiration rates... -
Elevated CO2 levels do not affect the shell structure of the bivalve Arctica ...
Shells of the bivalve Arctica islandica are used to reconstruct paleo-environmental conditions (e.g. temperature) via biogeochemical proxies, i.e. biogenic components that are... -
The photo-physiological response of a model cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosi...
We measured the relationship between CO2-induced seawater acidification, photo-physiological performance and intracellular pH (pHi) in a model cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis... -
The influence of seawater pH on U/ Ca ratios in the scleractinian cold-water ...
The increasing pCO2 in seawater is a serious threat for marine calcifiers and alters the biogeochemistry of the ocean. Therefore, the reconstruction of past-seawater properties... -
Mixed effects of elevated pCO2 on fertilisation, larval and juvenile developm...
Ocean acidification is predicted to have severe consequences for calcifying marine organisms especially molluscs. Recent studies, however, have found that molluscs in marine... -
Effects of light and elevated pCO2 on the growth and photochemical efficiency...
The effects of light and elevated pCO2 on the growth and photochemical efficiency of the critically endangered staghorn coral, Acropora cervicornis, were examined... -
Sea urchin response to rising pCO2 shows ocean acidification may fundamentall...
Ocean acidification caused by an increase in pCO2 is expected to drastically affect marine ecosystem composition, yet there is much uncertainty about the mechanisms through... -
Impacts of food availability and pCO2 on planulation, juvenile survival, and ...
Ocean acidification, the assimilation of atmospheric CO2 by the oceans that decreases the pH and CaCO3 saturation state (Omega) of seawater, is projected to have severe adverse... -
Effect of increased pCO2 level on early shell development in great scallop (P...
As a result of high anthropogenic CO2 emissions, the concentration of CO2 in the oceans has increased, causing a decrease in pH, known as ocean acidification (OA). Numerous... -
Ocean acidification has no effect on thermal bleaching in the coral Seriatopo...
The objective of this study was to test whether elevated pCO2 predicted for the year 2100 (85.1 Pa) affects bleaching in the coral Seriatopora caliendrum (Ehrenberg 1834) either... -
In Situ effects of low pH and elevated HCO3 on juvenile massive Porites spp. ...
Juvenile colonies of massive Porites spp. were exposed to manipulated pH and bicarbonate ([HCO3-]) in situ to test the hypothesis that ocean acidification (OA) does not affect... -
Influence of sediment acidification and water flow on sediment acceptance and...
Although ocean acidification is expected to reduce carbonate saturation and yield negative impacts on open-ocean calcifying organisms in the near future, acidification in... -
Coral energy reserves and calcification in a high-CO2 world at two temperatures
Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations threaten coral reefs globally by causing ocean acidification (OA) and warming. Yet, the combined effects of elevated pCO2 and temperature... -
Acid-base regulation in the Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister)
Homeostatic regulation allows organisms to secure basic physiological processes in a varying environment. To counteract fluctuations in ambient carbonate system speciation due... -
The responses of eight coral reef calcifiers to increasing partial pressure o...
The objective of this study was to investigate whether a tipping point exists in the calcification responses of coral reef calcifiers to CO2. We compared the effects of six... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and mantle gene expression patterns of the Balti...
In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Lavigne and Gattuso, 2011) was used to compute a complete and consistent... -
