Effects of elevated pCO2 on the post-settlement development of Pocillopora da...
Ocean acidification represents a key threat to the recruitment of scleractinian corals. Here, we investigated the effect of increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2)... -
Interactive effects of light, nitrogen source, and carbon dioxide on energy m...
Due to the ongoing effects of climate change, phytoplankton are likely to experience enhanced irradiance, more reduced nitrogen, and increased water acidity in the future ocean.... -
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... -
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... -
Alleviation of solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-induced photoinhibition in d...
The study aimed to unravel the interaction between ocean acidification and solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in Chaetoceros curvisetus. Chaetoceros curvisetus cells were... -
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... -
CO2 and inorganic nutrient enrichment affect the performance of a calcifying ...
Ocean acidification studies in the past decade have greatly improved our knowledge of how calcifying organisms respond to increased surface ocean CO2 levels. It has become... -
Photochemical responses of the diatom Skeletonema costatum grown under elevat...
Variability in pH is a common occurrence in many aquatic environments, due to physical, chemical and biological processes. In coastal waters, lagoons, estuaries and inland... -
Iron limitation modulates ocean acidification effects on southern ocean phyto...
The potential interactive effects of iron (Fe) limitation and Ocean Acidification in the Southern Ocean (SO) are largely unknown. Here we present results of a long-term... -
Ocean acidification alleviates low-temperature effects on growth and photosyn...
This study aimed to examine interactive effects between ocean acidification and temperature on the photosynthetic and growth performance of Neosiphonia harveyi. N. harveyi was... -
Seagrass ecosystem response to long-term high CO2 in a Mediterranean volcanic...
We examined the long-term effect of naturally acidified water on a Cymodocea nodosa meadow growing at a shallow volcanic CO2 vent in Vulcano Island (Italy). Seagrass and... -
Photophysiological responses of Southern Ocean phytoplankton to changes in CO...
The present study examines how different pCO2 acclimations affect the CO2- and light-dependence of photophysiological processes and O2 fluxes in four Southern Ocean (SO) key... -
Enhancement of photosynthetic carbon assimilation efficiency by phytoplankton...
A mesocosm experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of future climate conditions on photosynthesis and productivity of coastal phytoplankton. Natural phytoplankton... -
Effects of CO2 enrichment on photosynthesis, growth, and nitrogen metabolism ...
Seagrass ecosystems are expected to benefit from the global increase in CO2 in the ocean because the photosynthetic rate of these plants may be Ci-limited at the current CO2... -
CO2-driven seawater acidification increases photochemical stress in a green alga
Increased CO2 and associated acidification in seawater, known as ocean acidification, decreases calcification of most marine calcifying organisms. However, there is little... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and photosynthesis of a coccolithophorid in a la...
Mixing of seawater subjects phytoplankton to fluctuations in photosynthetically active radiation (400-700 nm) and ultraviolet radiation (UVR; 280-400 nm). These irradiance... -
Experiment: Physiological responses of the calcifying rhodophyte, Corallina o...
Future atmospheric CO2 levels will most likely have complex consequences for marine organisms, particulary photosynthetic calcifying organisms. Corallina officinalis L. is an... -
Experiment: Competition between calcifying and noncalcifying temperate marine...
Since pre-industrial times, uptake of anthropogenic CO2 by surface ocean waters has caused a documented change of 0.1 pH units. Calcifying organisms are sensitive to elevated... -
Physiological responses of the marine diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana to incr...
We studied the effects of elevated CO2 concentration and seawater acidity on inorganic carbon acquisition, photoinhibition and photoprotection as well as growth and respiration... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcium carbonate of Padina spp., photosynth...
Predicting the impacts of ocean acidification on coastal ecosystems requires an understanding of the effects on macroalgae and their grazers, as these underpin the ecology of...
