Testing Antarctic resilience: the effects of elevated seawater temperature an...
Ocean acidification has been hypothesized to increase stress and decrease shell calcification in gastropods, particularly in cold water habitats like the western Antarctic... -
Micro-CT analysis of the Caribbean octocoral Eunicea flexuosa subjected to el...
Rising anthropogenic carbon dioxide has resulted in a drop in ocean pH, a phenomenon known as ocean acidification (OA). These acidified waters have many ramifications for... -
Impact of ocean acidification on thermal tolerance and acid-base regulation o...
In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Gattuso et al, 2015) was used to compute a complete and consistent set of... -
Ocean acidification impairs crab foraging behaviour
Anthropogenic elevation of atmospheric CO2 is driving global-scale ocean acidification, which consequently influences calcification rates of many marine invertebrates and... -
Species-specific responses to climate change and community composition determ...
Anthropogenic climate change compromises reef growth as a result of increasing temperatures and ocean acidification. Scleractinian corals vary in their sensitivity to these... -
Next-century ocean acidification and warming both reduce calcification rate, ...
Atmospheric pCO2 is predicted to rise from 400 to 900 ppm by year 2100, causing seawater temperature to increase by 1-4 °C and pH to decrease by 0.1-0.3. Sixty-day experiments... -
Long-term effects of altered pH and temperature on the feeding energetics of ...
This study investigated the effects of long-term incubation to near-future combined warming (+2 °C) and ocean acidification (-0.3 and -0.5 pH units) stressors, relative to... -
Understanding cold bias: Variable response of skeletal Sr/Ca to seawater pCO2...
Coral skeletal Sr/Ca is a palaeothermometer commonly used to produce high resolution seasonal sea surface temperature (SST) records and to investigate the amplitude and... -
Interactive effects of ocean acidification and neighboring corals on the grow...
The physical and chemical environment around corals, as well as their physiology, can be affected by interactions with neighboring corals. This study employed small colonies (4... -
Presence of competitors influences photosynthesis, but not growth, of the har...
Changes in environmental conditions, such as those caused by elevated carbon dioxide (CO2), potentially alter the outcome of competitive interactions between species. This study... -
Colony-specific calcification and mortality under ocean acidification in the ...
Ocean acidification (OA) threatens calcifying marine organisms including reef-building corals. In this study, we examined the OA responses of individual colonies of the... -
Effect of ocean warming and acidification on the early life stages of subtrop...
This study investigated the impacts of acidified seawater (pCO2 900 µatm) and elevated water temperature (+3 °C) on the early life history stages of Acropora spicifera from the... -
Evaluation of the threat of marine CO2 leakage-associated acidification on th...
The effects of the acidification associated with CO2 leakage from sub-seabed geological storage was studied by the evaluation of the short-term effects of CO2-induced... -
Impact of high pCO2 and warmer temperatures on the process of silica biominer...
Siliceous sponges have survived pre-historical mass extinction events caused by ocean acidification and recent studies suggest that siliceous sponges will continue to resist... -
Echinometra sea urchins acclimatised to elevated pCO2 at volcanic vents outpe...
Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations will significantly reduce ocean pH during the 21st century (ocean acidification, OA). This may hamper calcification in marine organisms... -
Impact of atmospheric pCO2, seawater temperature, and calcification rate on t...
The tropical echinoid Echinometra viridis was reared in controlled laboratory experiments at temperatures of approximately 20°C and 30°C to mimic winter and summer temperatures... -
Impact of seawater carbonate chemistry on the calcification of marine bivalves
Bivalve calcification, particularly of the early larval stages, is highly sensitive to the change in ocean carbonate chemistry resulting from atmospheric CO2 uptake. Earlier... -
Seawater acidification affects the physiological energetics and spawning capa...
Ocean acidification is predicted to have widespread implications for marine bivalve mollusks. While our understanding of its impact on their physiological and behavioral... -
Combined effects of short-term exposure to elevated CO2 and decreased O2 on t...
Hypoxia and ocean acidification are two consequences of anthropogenic activities. These global trends occur on top of natural variability. In environments such as estuarine... -
Ocean acidification weakens the immune response of blood clam through hamperi...
The impact of pCO2 driven ocean acidification on marine bivalve immunity remains poorly understood. To date, this impact has only been investigated in a few bivalve species and...
