Temperature Dependent Effects of Elevated CO2 on Shell Composition and Mechan...
The majority of marine benthic invertebrates protect themselves from predators by producing calcareous tubes or shells that have remarkable mechanical strength. An elevation of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and proportion of different dissolution levels i...
The carbonate chemistry of the surface ocean is rapidly changing with ocean acidification, a result of human activities. In the upper layers of the Southern Ocean, aragonite-a... -
Response of benthic foraminifera to ocean acidification in their natural sedi...
Calcifying foraminifera are expected to be endangered by ocean acidification; however, the response of a complete community kept in natural sediment and over multiple... -
Stress-tolerant corals of Florida Bay are vulnerable to ocean acidification
In situ calcification measurements tested the hypothesis that corals from environments (Florida Bay, USA) that naturally experience large swings in pCO2 and pH will be tolerant... -
Impact of changing carbonate chemistry, temperature, and salinity on growth a...
The present study investigated the combined effects of ocean acidification, temperature, and salinity on growth and test degradation of Ammonia aomoriensis. This species is one... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, physiology and skeletal mineralogy of coralline...
Marine organisms inhabiting environments where pCO2/pH varies naturally are suggested to be relatively resilient to future ocean acidification. To test this hypothesis, 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... -
Ocean acidification induces multi-generational decline in copepod naupliar pr...
Climate change, including ocean acidification (OA), presents fundamental challenges to marine biodiversity and sustained ecosystem health. We determined reproductive response... -
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... -
Effects of ocean acidification and global warming on reef bioerosion-lessons ...
Coral reefs are under threat, exerted by a number of interacting effects inherent to the present climate change, including ocean acidification and global warming. Bioerosion... -
Sponge bioerosion accelerated by ocean acidification across species and latit...
In many marine biogeographic realms, bioeroding sponges dominate the internal bioerosion of calcareous substrates such as mollusc beds and coral reef framework. They... -
Reduced calcification and lack of acclimatization by coral colonies growing i...
As the surface ocean equilibrates with rising atmospheric CO2, the pH of surface seawater is decreasing with potentially negative impacts on coral calcification. A critical... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, respiration, maximum photochemical efficiency a...
To evaluate the effects of temperature and pCO2 on coral larvae, brooded larvae of Pocillopora damicornis from Nanwan Bay, Taiwan (21°56.179' N, 120°44.85' E), were exposed to... -
Microenvironmental changes support evidence of photosynthesis and calcificati...
The effects of elevated CO2 and temperature on photosynthesis and calcification of two important calcifying reef algae (Halimeda macroloba and Halimeda cylindracea) were... -
Elevated CO2 alters larval proteome and its phosphorylation status in the com...
Ocean acidification (OA) is beginning to have noticeable negative impact on calcification rate, shell structure and physiological energy budgeting of several marine organisms;... -
CO2-driven ocean acidification alters and weakens integrity of the calcareous...
As a consequence of anthropogenic CO2-driven ocean acidification (OA), coastal waters are becoming increasingly challenging for calcifiers due to reductions in saturation states... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, survival rate, shell mass growth, shell dissolu...
Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions induce ocean acidification, thereby reducing carbonate ion concentration, which may affect the ability of calcifying organisms to build... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and larval growth response of the Portuguese oys...
Rising anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) dissolving into coastal waters is decreasing the pH and carbonate ion concentration, thereby lowering the saturation state of calcium...
