Seawater carbonate chemistry and host–pathogen interactions: blue mussels, My...
Ocean acidification (OA) can shift the ecological balance between interacting organisms. In this study, we have used a model-system to illustrate the interaction between a... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and acid–base balance in the hæmolymph of Europe...
Ocean acidification (OA) and the associated changes in seawater carbonate chemistry pose a threat to calcifying organisms. This is particularly serious for shelled molluscs, in... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and acid-base physiology over tidal periods in t...
Ocean acidification (OA) studies to date have typically used stable open-ocean pH and CO2 values to predict the physiological responses of intertidal species to future climate... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and acid–base physiology and behaviour of the Ca...
Behavioural impairment following exposure to ocean acidification-relevant CO2 levels has been noted in a broad array of taxa. The underlying cause of these disruptions is... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and mussel shell defense capacity of Mytilus cor...
Oceanic uptake of atmospheric CO2 is reducing seawater pH and shifting carbonate chemistry within, a process termed as ocean acidification (OA). Marine mussels are a family of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and blood acid-base balance and other blood para...
Global ocean acidification is expected to chronically lower the pH to 7.3 (>2200 µatm seawater pCO2) by the year 2300. Acute hypercapnia already occurs along the South... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and acid–base parameters, metabolic rate and hea...
Ocean acidification (OA) studies typically use stable open-ocean pH or CO2 values. However, species living within dynamic coastal environments can naturally experience wide... -
Ocean acidification adversely influences metabolism, extracellular pH and cal...
Oceanic uptake of CO2 from the atmosphere has significantly reduced surface seawater pH and altered the carbonate chemistry within, leading to global Ocean Acidification (OA).... -
The effects of hypercapnia on the West Coast rock lobster (Jasus lalandii) th...
The cold water palinurid Jasus lalandii ('West Coast rock lobster') is a commercially important crustacean in South Africa and Namibia and inhabits the Benguela Current Eastern... -
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... -
(Table 1) Ion concentrations in the haemolymph of Apherusa glacialis after in...
Amphipods living at the underside of Arctic sea ice are exposed to varying salinities due to freezing and melting, and have to cope with the resulting osmotic stress.... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
Gene expression profiling in gills of the great spider crab Hyas araneus in r...
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... -
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... -
Mixed effects of elevated pCO2 on fertilisation, larval and juvenile developm...
Ocean acidification is predicted to have severe consequences for calcifying marine organisms especially molluscs. Recent studies, however, have found that molluscs in marine... -
Acid-base regulation in the Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister), supplemen...
Homeostatic regulation allows organisms to secure basic physiological processes in a varying environment. To counteract fluctuations in ambient carbonate system speciation due... -
Biological impacts of enhanced alkalinity in Carcinus maenas, supplement to: ...
Further steps are needed to establish feasible alleviation strategies that are able to reduce the impacts of ocean acidification, whilst ensuring minimal biological side-effects... -
Experiment: Food availability outweighs ocean acidification effects in juveni...
Ocean acidification is expected to decrease calcification rates of bivalves. Nevertheless in many coastal areas high pCO2 variability is encountered already today. Kiel Fjord...
