Physiological advantages of dwarfing in surviving extinctions in high-CO2 oceans
Excessive CO2 in the present-day ocean-atmosphere system is causing ocean acidification, and is likely to cause a severe biodiversity decline in the future, mirroring effects in... -
Effects of CO2 and iron availability on rbcL gene expression in Bering Sea di...
Iron (Fe) can limit phytoplankton productivity in approximately 40% of the global ocean, including in high-nutrient, low-chlorophyll (HNLC) waters. However, there is little... -
Limpets counteract ocean acidification induced shell corrosion by thickening ...
Specimens of the patellogastropod limpet Patella caerulea were collected within (pHlow-shells) and outside (pHn-shells) a CO2 vent site at Ischia, Italy. Four pHlow-shells and... -
Combined metabolome and proteome analysis of the mantle tissue from Pacific o...
Ocean acidification (OA) has been found to affect an array of normal physiological processes in mollusks, especially posing a significant threat to the fabrication process of... -
Effect of simulated ocean acidification on the acute toxicity of Cu and Cd to...
Heavy metals pollution in marine environments has caused great damage to marine biological and ecological systems. Heavy metals accumulate in marine creatures, after which they... -
Temperature tolerance of different larval stages of the spider crab Hyas aran...
Exposure to elevated seawater PCO2 limits the thermal tolerance of crustaceans but the underlying mechanisms have not been comprehensively explored. Larval stages of crustaceans... -
Elevated pCO2 from late summer coastal upwellings in the western Baltic Sea e...
The brown algae Fucus serratus is one of the major meadow forming algae of the Western Baltic Sea nearshore ecosystem. At the end of summer, those meadows are exposed to local... -
Natural high pCO2 increases autotrophy in Anemonia viridis (Anthozoa) as reve...
Contemporary cnidarian-algae symbioses are challenged by increasing CO2 concentrations (ocean warming and acidification) affecting organisms' biological performance. We examined... -
Seaweed fails to prevent ocean acidification impact on foraminifera along a s...
Ocean acidification causes biodiversity loss, alters ecosystems, and may impact food security, as shells of small organisms dissolve easily in corrosive waters. There is a... -
CO2-driven decrease in pH disrupts olfactory behaviour and increases individu...
Deep-sea species are generally thought to be less tolerant of environmental variation than shallow-living species due to the relatively stable conditions in deep waters for most... -
Saturating light and not increased carbon dioxide under ocean acidification d...
Carbon physiology of a genetically identified Ulva rigida was investigated under different CO2(aq) and light levels. The study was designed to answer whether (1) light or... -
Synergistic effects of pCO2 and iron availability on nutrient consumption rat...
Little is known concerning the effect of CO2 on phytoplankton ecophysiological processes under nutrient and trace element-limited conditions, because most CO2 manipulation... -
Cuttlebone morphometry measurements
Changes in seawater carbonate chemistry that accompany ongoing ocean acidification have been found to affect calcification processes in many marine invertebrates. In contrast to... -
First evidence of altered sensory quality in a shellfish exposed to decreased...
Understanding how seafood will be influenced by coming environmental changes such as ocean acidification is a research priority. One major gap in knowledge relates to the fact... -
Shell condition and survival of Puget Sound pteropods are impaired by ocean a...
We tested whether the thecosome pteropod Limacina helicina from Puget Sound, an urbanized estuary in the northwest continental US, experiences shell dissolution and altered... -
Impact of ocean acidification and warming on the Mediterranean mussel (Mytilu...
In order to assess the effects of ocean acidification and warming on the Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis), specimens were reared in aquarium tanks and exposed to... -
Coral calcifying fluid pH dictates response to ocean acidification
Ocean acidification driven by rising levels of CO2 impairs calcification, threatening coral reef growth. Predicting how corals respond to CO2 requires a better understanding of... -
Escape performance of temperate king scallop, Pecten maximus under ocean warm...
Among bivalves, scallops are exceptional due to their capacity to escape from predators by swimming which is provided by rapid and strong claps that are produced by the phasic... -
Adaptation and acclimatization to ocean acidification in marine ectotherms: a...
In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Lavigne et al, 2014) was used to compute a complete and consistent set of... -
Distribution of sea urchins living near shallow water CO2 vents is dependent ...
In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Lavigne et al, 2014) was used to compute a complete and consistent set of...
