Sea urchins in a high CO2 world: partitioned effects of body-size, ocean warm...
Body-size and temperature are the major factors explaining metabolic rate, and the additional factor of pH is a major driver at the biochemical level. These three factors have... -
Effects of ocean acidification on Posidonia oceanica epiphytic community and ...
Biological interactions can alter predictions that are based on single-species physiological response. It is known that leaf segments of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica will... -
Ocean acidification increases cadmium accumulation in marine bivalves: a pote...
To date, the effects of ocean acidification on toxic metals accumulation and the underlying molecular mechanism remains unknown in marine bivalve species. In the present study,... -
Individual and population-level responses to ocean acidification
Ocean acidification is predicted to have detrimental effects on many marine organisms and ecological processes. Despite growing evidence for direct impacts on specific species,... -
Effect of ocean acidification and pH fluctuations on the growth and developme...
Coralline algae are susceptible to the changes in the seawater carbonate system associated with ocean acidification (OA). However, the coastal environments in which corallines... -
Preconditioning in the reef-building coral Pocillopora damicornis and the pot...
Coral reefs are globally threatened by climate change-related ocean warming and ocean acidification (OA). To date, slow-response mechanisms such as genetic adaptation have been... -
Colony-specific investigations reveal highly variable responses among individ...
As anthropogenic climate change is an ongoing concern, scientific investigations on its impacts on coral reefs are increasing. Although impacts of combined ocean acidification... -
Effects of elevated CO2 and temperature on an intertidal meiobenthic community
In the near future, the marine environment is likely to be subjected to simultaneous increases in temperature and decreased pH. The potential effects of these changes on... -
Two intertidal, non-calcifying macroalgae (Palmaria palmata and Saccharina la...
Ocean acidification, the result of increased dissolution of carbon dioxide (CO2) in seawater, is a leading subject of current research. The effects of acidification on... -
Threatened Caribbean coral is able to mitigate the adverse effects of ocean a...
Global climate change threatens coral growth and reef ecosystem health via ocean warming and ocean acidification (OA). Whereas the negative impacts of these stressors are... -
Increased CO2 modifies the carbon balance and the photosynthetic yield of two...
Ocean acidification affects with special intensity Arctic ecosystems, being marine photosynthetic organisms a primary target, although the consequences of this process in the... -
Effects of ocean acidification on the photosynthetic performance, carbonic an...
Under ocean acidification (OA), the 200 % increase in CO2(aq) and the reduction of pH by 0.3-0.4 units are predicted to affect the carbon physiology and growth of macroalgae.... -
Changes in coral reef communities across a natural gradient in seawater pH
Ocean acidification threatens the survival of coral reef ecosystems worldwide. The negative effects of ocean acidification observed in many laboratory experiments have been seen... -
The effect of elevated CO2 and increased temperature on in vitro fertilizatio...
The impact of global climate change on coral reefs is expected to be most profound at the sea surface, where fertilization and embryonic development of broadcast-spawning corals... -
Foraging behaviour of the epaulette shark Hemiscyllium ocellatum is not affec...
Increased oceanic uptake of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) is a threat to marine organisms and ecosystems. Among the most dramatic consequences predicted to date are... -
The effects of water acidification, temperature and salinity on the regenerat...
Changes in seawater pH, temperature and salinity are expected to occur in the near future, which can be a threat to aquatic systems, mainly for marine coastal areas, and their... -
Macroalgal responses to ocean acidification depend on nutrient and light levels
Ocean acidification may benefit algae that are able to capitalize on increased carbon availability for photosynthesis, but it is expected to have adverse effects on calcified... -
Metabolic responses to temperature stress under elevated pCO2 in Crepidula fo...
In the current context of environmental change, ocean acidification is predicted to affect the cellular processes, physiology and behaviour of all marine organisms, impacting... -
Giant clams and rising CO2: light may ameliorate effects of ocean acidificati...
Global climate change and ocean acidification pose a serious threat to marine life. Marine invertebrates are particularly susceptible to ocean acidification, especially highly... -
