Effects of high dissolved inorganic and organic carbon availability on the ph...
Coral reefs are facing major global and local threats due to climate change-induced increases in dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and because of land-derived increases in... -
Effects of elevated pCO2 and feeding on net calcification and energy budget o...
Ocean acidification is a major threat to calcifying marine organisms such as deep-sea cold-water corals (CWC), but related knowledge is scarce. The aragonite saturation... -
Interannual stability of organic to inorganic carbon production on a coral at...
Ocean acidification has the potential to adversely affect marine calcifying organisms, with substantial ocean ecosystem impacts projected over the 21st century. Characterizing... -
Interactive effects of ocean acidification and warming on coral reef associat...
Epilithic algal communities play critical ecological roles on coral reefs, but their response to individual and interactive effects of ocean warming (OW) and ocean acidification... -
Enrichments (DIC and DOC) on the photosynthesis and calcification rates of tw...
Coral reefs worldwide are affected by increasing dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and organic carbon (DOC) concentrations due to ocean acidification (OA) and coastal... -
Coral pH regulation of the calcifying fluid is modulated by seawater dissolve...
Reef coral calcification depends on regulation of pH in the internal calcifying fluid in which the coral skeleton forms. However, little is known about calcifying fluid pH... -
The physiological response of two green calcifying algae from the great barri...
Increasing dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) concentrations associated with ocean acidification can affect marine calcifiers, but local factors, such as high dissolved organic... -
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... -
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... -
Nighttime dissolution in a temperate coastal ocean ecosystem increases under ...
Anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing ocean acidification, lowering seawater aragonite (CaCO3) saturation state (Omega arag), with potentially substantial... -
Annual response of two Mediterranean azooxanthellate temperate corals to low-...
Ocean acidification (OA) and warming related to the anthropogenic increase in atmospheric CO2 have been shown to have detrimental effects on several marine organisms, especially... -
Acclimatization to high-variance habitats does not enhance physiological tole...
Corals are acclimatized to populate dynamic habitats that neighbour coral reefs. Habitats such as seagrass beds exhibit broad diel changes in temperature and pH that routinely... -
Coralline algal physiology is more adversely affected by elevated temperature...
In this study we analyzed the physiological responses of coralline algae to ocean acidification (OA) and global warming, by exposing algal thalli of three species with... -
Hidden impacts of ocean acidification to live and dead coral framework
Cold-water corals, such as Lophelia pertusa, are key habitat-forming organisms found throughout the world's oceans to 3000 m deep. The complex three-dimensional framework made... -
Assessing the physiological responses of the gastropod Crepidula fornicata to...
Organisms inhabiting coastal waters naturally experience diel and seasonal physico-chemical variations. According to various assumptions, coastal species are either considered... -
Biomineralization changes with food supply confer juvenile scallops (Argopect...
Future ocean acidification (OA) will affect physiological traits of marine species, with calcifying species being particularly vulnerable. As OA entails high energy demands,... -
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... -
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... -
Morphological plasticity of the coral skeleton under CO2-driven seawater acid...
Ocean acidification causes corals to calcify at reduced rates, but current understanding of the underlying processes is limited. Here, we conduct a mechanistic study into how... -
Changes in coral reef communities across a natural gradient in seawater pH, s...
Ocean acidification threatens the survival of coral reef ecosystems worldwide. The negative effects of ocean acidification observed in many laboratory experiments have been seen...
