Euechinoidea and Cidaroidea respond differently to ocean acidification
The impact of the chemical changes in the ocean waters due to the increasing atmospheric CO2 depends on the ability of an organism to control extracellular pH. Among sea... -
Parental effects improve escape performance of juvenile reef fish in a high-C...
Rising CO2 levels in the oceans are predicted to have serious consequences for many marine taxa. Recent studies suggest that non-genetic parental effects may reduce the impact... -
Impact of medium-term exposure to elevated pCO2 levels on the physiological e...
This study evaluated the impact of medium-term exposure to elevated pCO2 levels (750-1200 ppm) on the physiological processes of juvenile Mytilus chilensis mussels over a period... -
European sea bass, Dicentrarchus labrax, in a changing ocean
Ocean acidification, caused by rising concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2), is widely considered to be a major global threat to marine ecosystems. To investigate the potential... -
Effects of high temperature and CO2 on intracellular DMSP in the cold-water c...
Significant warming and acidification of the oceans is projected to occur by the end of the century. CO2 vents, areas of upwelling and downwelling, and potential leaks from... -
Acclimatization of the crustose coralline alga Porolithon onkodes to variable...
Ocean acidification (OA) has important implications for the persistence of coral reef ecosystems, due to potentially negative effects on biomineralization. Many coral reefs are... -
CO2-induced ocean acidification increases anxiety in Rockfish via alteration ...
The average surface pH of the ocean is dropping at a rapid rate due to the dissolution of anthropogenic CO2, raising concerns for marine life. Additionally, some coastal areas... -
Effects of light and elevated pCO2 on the growth and photochemical efficiency...
The effects of light and elevated pCO2 on the growth and photochemical efficiency of the critically endangered staghorn coral, Acropora cervicornis, were examined... -
Effect of increased pCO2 level on early shell development in great scallop (P...
As a result of high anthropogenic CO2 emissions, the concentration of CO2 in the oceans has increased, causing a decrease in pH, known as ocean acidification (OA). Numerous... -
Ocean acidification has no effect on thermal bleaching in the coral Seriatopo...
The objective of this study was to test whether elevated pCO2 predicted for the year 2100 (85.1 Pa) affects bleaching in the coral Seriatopora caliendrum (Ehrenberg 1834) either... -
Coral energy reserves and calcification in a high-CO2 world at two temperatures
Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations threaten coral reefs globally by causing ocean acidification (OA) and warming. Yet, the combined effects of elevated pCO2 and temperature... -
Acid-base regulation in the Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister)
Homeostatic regulation allows organisms to secure basic physiological processes in a varying environment. To counteract fluctuations in ambient carbonate system speciation due... -
CO2-induced fertilization impairment in Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis col...
Fertilization depends on distribution and aggregation patterns of sea urchins which influence gamete contact time and may potentially enhance their vulnerability to ocean... -
Elevated CO2 affects the behavior of an ecologically and economically importa...
We tested the effect of near-future CO2 levels (= 490, 570, 700, and 960 µatm CO2) on the olfactory responses and activity levels of juvenile coral trout, Plectropomus... -
Selective mortality associated with variation in CO2 tolerance in a marine fish
Predicted future CO2 levels can affect reproduction, growth, and behaviour of many marine organisms. However, the capacity of species to adapt to predicted changes in ocean... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, thickness and carbonate elemental composition o...
Ocean surface CO2 levels are increasing in line with rising atmospheric CO2 and could exceed 900 µatm by year 2100, with extremes above 2000 µatm in some coastal habitats. The... -
The influence of temperature and seawater carbonate saturation state on 13C-1...
The shells of marine mollusks are widely used archives of past climate and ocean chemistry. Whilst the measurement of mollusk delta 18O to develop records of past climate change... -
Photosynthate translocation increases in response to low seawater pH in a cor...
This study has examined the effect of low seawater pH values (induced by an increased CO2 partial pressure) on the rates of photosynthesis, as well as on the carbon budget and... -
Whole transcriptome analysis of the coral Acropora millepora reveals complex ...
The impact of ocean acidification (OA) on coral calcification, a subject of intense current interest, is poorly understood in part because of the presence of symbionts in adult... -
Ocean acidification accelerates reef bioerosion
In the recent discussion how biotic systems may react to ocean acidification caused by the rapid rise in carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2) in the marine realm, substantial...
