Effects of ocean acidification on visual risk assessment in coral reef fishes
With the global increase in CO2 emissions, there is a pressing need for studies aimed at understanding the effects of ocean acidification on marine ecosystems. Several studies... -
Interactive effects of ocean acidification and rising sea temperatures alter ...
Ocean warming and acidification are serious threats to marine life. While each stressor alone has been studied in detail, their combined effects on the outcome of ecological... -
Effects of ocean acidification on learning in coral reef fishes
Ocean acidification has the potential to cause dramatic changes in marine ecosystems. Larval damselfish exposed to concentrations of CO2 predicted to occur in the mid- to... -
Putting prey and predator into the CO2 equation-qualitative and quantitative ...
Little is known about the impact of ocean acidification on predator-prey dynamics. Herein, we examined the effect of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) on both prey and predator by letting... -
Impaired learning of predators and lower prey survival under elevated CO2: a ...
Ocean acidification is one of the most pressing environmental concerns of our time, and not surprisingly, we have seen a recent explosion of research into the physiological... -
Ocean acidification impacts on sperm mitochondrial membrane potential bring s...
Broadcast spawning marine invertebrates are susceptible to environmental stressors such as climate change, as their reproduction depends on the successful meeting and... -
Experimental ocean acidification alters the allocation of metabolic energy
Energy is required to maintain physiological homeostasis in response to environmental change. Although responses to environmental stressors frequently are assumed to involve... -
Responses of the tropical gorgonian coral Eunicea fusca to ocean acidificatio...
Ocean acidification can have negative repercussions from the organism to ecosystem levels. Octocorals deposit high-magnesium calcite in their skeletons, and according to... -
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... -
Galápagos coral reef persistence after ENSO warming across an acidification g...
Anthropogenic CO2 is causing warming and ocean acidification. Coral reefs are being severely impacted, yet confusion lingers regarding how reefs will respond to these stressors... -
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... -
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... -
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... -
Ocean acidification rapidly reduces dinitrogen fixation associated with the h...
Since productivity and growth of coral-associated dinoflagellate algae is nitrogen (N)-limited, dinitrogen (N2) fixation by coral-associated microbes is likely crucial for... -
Adaptation and acclimatization to ocean acidification in marine ectotherms: a...
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... -
Distribution of sea urchins living near shallow water CO2 vents is dependent ...
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... -
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,... -
Empirical Evidence Reveals Seasonally Dependent Reduction in Nitrification in...
Research so far has provided little evidence that benthic biogeochemical cycling is affected by ocean acidification under realistic climate change scenarios. We measured...
