Seawater carbonate chemistry and sperm motility of Tegillarca granosavia
Since the industrial revolution, massive amount of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) have been generated to elevate the atmospheric CO2 concentration. Some anthropogenic CO2... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and coral calcification
Experiments with coral fragments (i.e. nubbins) have shown that net calcification is depressed by elevated PCO2. Evaluating the implications of this finding requires scaling of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and reproductive development,larval survival and...
In North America, studies regarding effects of CO2-induced low pH in bivalve aquaculture are largely restricted to the US Pacific coast. Studies on species from the northwest... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and sperm physiology in Mytilus galloprovincialis
The ongoing increase of CO2 in the atmosphere is inducing a progressive lowering of marine water pH that is predicted to decrease to 7.8 by the end of this century. In marine... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and oxygen uptake rates of coral reef fishes
Ocean acidification, resulting from increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, can affect the physiological performance of some fishes. Most studies investigating... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and gastropod shell composition
Organisms, such as molluscs, that produce their hard parts from calcium carbonate are expected to show increased difficulties growing and maintaining their skeletons under ocean... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and risk-taking behavior in prey (shrimps)
Marine prey and predators will respond to future climate through physiological and behavioral adjustments. However, our understanding of how such direct effects may shift the... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and trace metal accumulation in the commercial m...
The current trend of climatic alterations will accelerate the modification of the ocean system by, among other aspects, changing the metal speciation and its bioavailability... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and motility of flagellated microalgae
Motility plays a critical role in algal survival and reproduction, with implications for aquatic ecosystem stability. However, the effect of elevated CO2 on marine, brackish and... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and copepod reproduction
The combined upwelling-El Niño (EN) event regulation of the numerically dominant Acartia tonsa (Crustacea, Copepoda) reproduction was examined in a year-round upwelling system... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and copepod adult size, egg production, and egg ...
Climate change is expected to exacerbate upwelling intensity and natural acidification in Eastern Boundaries Upwelling Systems (EBUS). Conducted between January-September 2015... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and copepod traits and performance
Linking pH/pCO2 natural variation to phenotypic traits and performance of foundational species provides essential information for assessing and predicting the impact of ocean... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and composition of plastic biofilm assemblages
The increasing quantity of plastic waste in the ocean is providing a growing and more widespread novel habitat for microbes. Plastics have taxonomically distinct microbial... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and characterising biogeochemical fluctuations i...
Coastal and intertidal habitats are at the forefront of anthropogenic influence and environmental change. The species occupying these habitats are adapted to a world of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and carbon assimilation of marine calcifiers
Ocean acidification by anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions is projected to depress metabolic and physiological activity in marine calcifiers. To evaluate the sensitivity of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and respiratory metabolism of microplankton
In the autumn of 2014, nine large mesocosms were deployed in the oligotrophic subtropical North-Atlantic coastal waters off Gran Canaria (Spain). Their deployment was designed... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and reef fish metabolic performance
Elevated CO2 levels have been shown to affect metabolic performance in some coral reef fishes. However, all studies to date have employed stable elevated CO2 levels, whereas... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification physiology of coralline algae
Crustose coralline algae play a crucial role in the building of reefs in the photic zones of nearshore ecosystems globally, and are highly susceptible to ocean acidification.... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and gross photosynthesis rate, respiration rate,...
Climate change threatens the survival of scleractinian coral from exposure to concurrent ocean warming, acidification and deoxygenation; how corals can potentially adapt to this... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and larval settlement of Sea urchin larvae
Extensive research has shown that the early life stages of marine organisms are sensitive to ocean acidification (OA). Less is known, however, on whether larval settlement and...
