Adult acclimation to combined temperature and pH stressors significantly enha...
This study examined the effects of long-term culture under altered conditions on the Antarctic sea urchin, Sterechinus neumayeri. Sterechinus neumayeri was cultured under the... -
Calcification is not the Achilles'heel of cold-water corals in an acidifying ...
Ocean acidification is thought to be a major threat to coral reefs: laboratory evidence and CO2 seep research has shown adverse effects on many coral species, although a few are... -
Rapid acclimation of juvenile corals to CO2-mediated acidification by upregul...
Corals play a key role in ocean ecosystems and carbonate balance, but their molecular response to ocean acidification remains unclear. The only previous whole-transcriptome... -
Acute survivorship of the deep-sea coral Lophelia pertusa from the Gulf of Me...
Changing global climate due to anthropogenic emissions of CO2 are driving rapid changes in the physical and chemical environment of the oceans via warming, deoxygenation, and... -
Acid-base balance and changes in haemolymph properties of the South African r...
Few studies exist reporting on long-term exposure of crustaceans to hypercapnia. We exposed juvenile South African rock lobsters, Jasus lalandii, to hypercapnic conditions of pH... -
Ocean acidification alters the calcareous microstructure of the green macro-a...
Decreases in seawater pH and carbonate saturation state (Omega) following the continuous increase in atmospheric CO2 represent a process termed ocean acidification, which is... -
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... -
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... -
Secondary calcification and dissolution respond differently to future ocean c...
Climate change threatens both the accretion and erosion processes that sustain coral reefs. Secondary calcification, bioerosion, and reef dissolution are integral to the... -
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... -
Effects of elevated CO2 on fish behaviour undiminished by transgenerational a...
Behaviour and sensory performance of marine fishes are impaired at CO2 levels projected to occur in the ocean in the next 50-100 years, and there is limited potential for... -
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... -
Relative sensitivity of soft-bottom intertidal macrofauna to increased CO2 an...
We used a controlled CO2 perturbation experiment to test hypotheses about changes in diversity, composition and structure of soft-bottom intertidal macrobenthic assemblages,... -
One size fits all: stability of metabolic scaling under warming and ocean aci...
Responses by marine species to ocean acidification (OA) have recently been shown to be modulated by external factors including temperature, food supply and salinity. However the... -
Projected near-future CO2 levels increase activity and alter defensive behavi...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels projected to occur in the oceans by the end of this century cause a range of behavioural effects in fish, but whether other highly active marine... -
Elevated CO2 affects embryonic development and larval phototaxis in a tempera...
As an effect of anthropogenic CO2 emissions, the chemistry of the world's oceans is changing. Understanding how this will affect marine organisms and ecosystems are critical in... -
Interactions among chronic and acute impacts on coral recruits: the importanc...
Newly settled recruits typically suffer high mortality from disturbances, but rapid growth reduces their mortality once size-escape thresholds are attained. Ocean acidification... -
Grazing under experimental hypercapnia and elevated temperature does not affe...
Chitons (class Polyplacophora) are benthic grazing molluscs with an eight-part aragonitic shell armature. The radula, a serial tooth ribbon that extends internally more than...
