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... -
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... -
A direct CO2 control system for ocean acidification experiments: testing effe...
Most ocean acidification (OA) experimental systems rely on pH as an indirect way to control CO2. However, accurate pH measurements are difficult to obtain and shifts in... -
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... -
Ocean acidification affects fish spawning but not paternity at CO2 seeps
Fish exhibit impaired sensory function and altered behaviour at levels of ocean acidification expected to occur owing to anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions during this... -
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... -
Impact of high CO2 on the geochemistry of the coralline algae Lithothamnion g...
Coralline algae are a significant component of the benthic ecosystem. Their ability to withstand physical stresses in high energy environments relies on their skeletal structure... -
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... -
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... -
Effects of ocean acidification on embryonic respiration and development of a ...
Volcanic CO2 seeps provide opportunities to investigate the effects of ocean acidification on organisms in the wild. To understand the influence of increasing CO2 concentrations... -
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... -
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... -
Maintained larval growth in mussel larvae exposed to acidified undersaturated...
Ocean acidification (OA) is known to affect bivalve early life-stages. We tested responses of blue mussel larvae to a wide range of pH in order to identify their tolerance... -
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... -
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... -
Early life stages of the Arctic copepod Calanus glacialis are unaffected by i...
As the world's oceans continue to absorb anthropogenic CO2 from the atmosphere, the carbonate chemistry of seawater will change. This process, termed ocean acidification, may... -
Impact of CO2-driven acidification on the development of the sea cucumber Apo...
We evaluated the impact of ocean acidification on the early development of sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus. The effect of pH-levels (pH 8.04, 7.85, 7.70 and 7.42) were... -
Effects of elevated pCO2 on the post-settlement development of Pocillopora da...
Ocean acidification represents a key threat to the recruitment of scleractinian corals. Here, we investigated the effect of increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2)... -
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...
