In temperate rocky reefs of the Mediterranean, the corals Cladocora caespitosa and Astroides calycularis live at sites with ambient seawater pH and at adjacent submarine...

Here, we used boron-based geochemical proxies (δ11B, B/Ca) to investigate how three common Hawaiian coral species (Montipora capitata, Porites compressa, Porites lobata)...

In this study, we investigated 1) the role of pH in sex determination (i.e., pH-mediated sex determination, namely,PSD); 2) the potential of PSD to be maintained across...

This study examines the effects of OA on embryonic and larval Pacific razor clams (Siliqua patula), a bivalve that produces a concretion during early shell development. Larvae...

Here, we take advantage of the ability to sample genetically distinct coral colonies (genets) to produce genetically identical clonal fragments (ramets) and use an identical...

Following natural thermal stress in two consecutive years (2014 and 2015), we evaluated the effects of feeding and simulated ocean acidification on the physiological recovery of...

In Ischia, Italy, two species of Mediterranean scleractinian corals–the symbiotic Cladocora caespitosa and the asymbiotic Astroides calycularis–were collected from ambient pH...

This study investigated the interactive efects of Ocean Warming and Ocean Acidification on Pacifc cod embryos and larvae by rearing fsh in a factorial experimental design at...

Here, we investigated these effects on the reef-building corals Acropora cytherea, Pocillopora verrucosa, and Porites cylindrica. We preconditioned corals to a control (pH 8.0)...

We examined gene expression responses of >2-year coral transplant experiment to ambient and low pH common garden sites of three species of reef-building corals (Porites...

This dataset includes physiological parameters of three Hawaiian coral species (Porites compressa, Porites lobata, and Montipora capitata) over 22-month mesocosm experiment. The...

The absorbtion of human-emitted CO2 by the oceans (elevated PCO2) is projected to alter the physiological performance of coral reef organisms by perturbing seawater chemistry...

Calcifying organisms are considered as threatened by ocean acidification, because of their calcium carbonate skeleton. This study investigated if a calcareous sponge could...

Ocean acidification typically reduces calcification in tropical marine corals but the mechanism for this process is not understood. We use skeletal boron geochemistry (B/Ca and...

There are increasing concerns that the current rate of climate change might outpace the ability of reef-building corals to adapt to future conditions. Work on model systems has...

Studies of coral colonies show that ocean acidification and temperature can affect calcification; however, less is known about the consequences for their populations....

This study tested the hypothesis that intraspecific morphological plasticity within a scleractinian coral elicits differential responses to elevated PCO2 and temperature. In...

Anthropogenic increases in atmospheric CO2 over this century are predicted to cause global average surface ocean pH to decline by 0.1–0.3 pH units and sea surface temperature to...

To investigate the effect of diel variation in pCO2 on coral calcification, branches of Acropora hyacinthus were collected in 2 habitats (upstream and downstream in a...

In corals, pH regulation of the extracellular calcifying medium (ECM) by the calcifying cell layer is a crucial step in the calcification process and is potentially important to...
