Euechinoidea and Cidaroidea respond differently to ocean acidification
The impact of the chemical changes in the ocean waters due to the increasing atmospheric CO2 depends on the ability of an organism to control extracellular pH. Among sea... -
Impact of elevated pCO2 on paralytic shellfish poisoning toxin content and co...
Ocean acidification is considered a major threat to marine ecosystems and may particularly affect primary producers. Here we investigated the impact of elevated pCO2 on... -
Elevated pCO2 causes developmental delay in early larval Pacific oysters, Cra...
Increasing atmospheric CO2 equilibrates with surface seawater, elevating the concentration of aqueous hydrogen ions. This process, ocean acidification, is a future and... -
Parental effects improve escape performance of juvenile reef fish in a high-C...
Rising CO2 levels in the oceans are predicted to have serious consequences for many marine taxa. Recent studies suggest that non-genetic parental effects may reduce the impact... -
Impact of medium-term exposure to elevated pCO2 levels on the physiological e...
This study evaluated the impact of medium-term exposure to elevated pCO2 levels (750-1200 ppm) on the physiological processes of juvenile Mytilus chilensis mussels over a period... -
Effects of hypercapnia on aspects of feeding, nutrition, and growth in the ed...
Land-based aquaculture facilities experience occasional hypercapnic conditions due to the accumulation of the metabolic waste product carbon dioxide. Pre-gonadal Lytechinus... -
Geographical variation in shell morphology of juvenile snails (Concholepas co...
Changes in phenotypic traits, such as mollusc shells, are indicative of variations in selective pressure along environmental gradients. Recently, increased sea surface... -
Bioturbation determines the response of benthic ammonia-oxidizing microorgani...
Ocean acidification (OA), caused by the dissolution of increasing concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) in seawater, is projected to cause significant changes to... -
The larvae of congeneric gastropods showed differential responses to the comb...
The tolerance and physiological responses of the larvae of two congeneric gastropods, the intertidal Nassarius festivus and subtidal Nassarius conoidalis, to the combined... -
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... -
Combined effects of different CO2 levels and N sources on the diazotrophic cy...
To predict effects of climate change and possible feedbacks, it is crucial to understand the mechanisms behind CO2 responses of biogeochemically relevant phytoplankton species.... -
Diversity of ocean acidification effects on marine N2 fixers
Considering the important role of N2 fixation for primary productivity and CO2 sequestration, it is crucial to assess the response of diazotrophs to ocean acidification.... -
Calcification of the Arctic coralline red algae Lithothamnion glaciale in res...
Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations could cause a calcium carbonate subsaturation of Arctic surface waters in the next 20 yr, making these waters corrosive for calcareous... -
CO2-induced ocean acidification increases anxiety in Rockfish via alteration ...
The average surface pH of the ocean is dropping at a rapid rate due to the dissolution of anthropogenic CO2, raising concerns for marine life. Additionally, some coastal areas... -
Impacts of ocean acidification on sediment processes in shallow waters of the...
Despite the important roles of shallow-water sediments in global biogeochemical cycling, the effects of ocean acidification on sedimentary processes have received relatively... -
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... -
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...
