Seawater carbonate chemistry and boron isotope and trace elements incorporati...
Early-life stages of reef-building corals are vital to coral existence and reef maintenance. It is therefore crucial to study juvenile coral response to future climate change... -
Colony-specific calcification and mortality under ocean acidification in the ...
Ocean acidification (OA) threatens calcifying marine organisms including reef-building corals. In this study, we examined the OA responses of individual colonies of the... -
Effects of ocean acidification on embryonic respiration and development of a ...
Volcanic CO2 seeps provide opportunities to investigate the effects of ocean acidification on organisms in the wild. To understand the influence of increasing CO2 concentrations... -
Effects of ocean acidification on the swimming ability, development and bioch...
Ocean acidification, recognized as a major threat to marine ecosystems, has developed into one of the fastest growing fields of research in marine sciences. Several studies on... -
Impact of seawater carbonate chemistry on the calcification of marine bivalves
Bivalve calcification, particularly of the early larval stages, is highly sensitive to the change in ocean carbonate chemistry resulting from atmospheric CO2 uptake. Earlier... -
Effects of in situ CO2 enrichment on structural characteristics, photosynthes...
Seagrass is expected to benefit from increased carbon availability under future ocean acidification. This hypothesis has been little tested by in situ manipulation. To test for... -
Seawater acidification affects the physiological energetics and spawning capa...
Ocean acidification is predicted to have widespread implications for marine bivalve mollusks. While our understanding of its impact on their physiological and behavioral... -
Combined effects of short-term ocean acidification and heat shock in a benthi...
Warming of the world's oceans is predicted to have many negative effects on organisms as they have optimal thermal windows. In coastal waters, however, both temperatures and... -
Morphological plasticity of the coral skeleton under CO2-driven seawater acid...
Ocean acidification causes corals to calcify at reduced rates, but current understanding of the underlying processes is limited. Here, we conduct a mechanistic study into how... -
The impact of fluctuating light on the dinoflagellate Prorocentrum micans dep...
Increasing atmospheric pCO2 and its dissolution into oceans leads to ocean acidification and warming, which reduces the thickness of upper mixing layer (UML) and upward nutrient... -
Nitrate limitation and ocean acidification interact with UV-B to reduce photo...
It has been proposed that ocean acidification (OA) will interact with other environmental factors to influence the overall impact of global change on biological systems.... -
Altered neurotransmitter function in CO2-exposed stickleback (Gasterosteus ac...
Studies on the consequences of ocean acidification for the marine ecosystem have revealed behavioural changes in coral reef fishes exposed to sustained near-future CO2 levels.... -
Effects of ocean acidification on the photosynthetic performance, carbonic an...
Under ocean acidification (OA), the 200 % increase in CO2(aq) and the reduction of pH by 0.3-0.4 units are predicted to affect the carbon physiology and growth of macroalgae.... -
Lack of evidence for elevated CO2-induced bottom-up effects on marine copepod...
Rising levels of atmospheric CO2 are responsible for a change in the carbonate chemistry of seawater with associated pH drops (acidification) projected to reach 0.4 units from... -
Calcification is not the Achilles'heel of cold-water corals in an acidifying ...
Ocean acidification is thought to be a major threat to coral reefs: laboratory evidence and CO2 seep research has shown adverse effects on many coral species, although a few are... -
Rapid acclimation of juvenile corals to CO2-mediated acidification by upregul...
Corals play a key role in ocean ecosystems and carbonate balance, but their molecular response to ocean acidification remains unclear. The only previous whole-transcriptome... -
CO2 and inorganic nutrient enrichment affect the performance of a calcifying ...
Ocean acidification studies in the past decade have greatly improved our knowledge of how calcifying organisms respond to increased surface ocean CO2 levels. It has become... -
Physiological advantages of dwarfing in surviving extinctions in high-CO2 oceans
Excessive CO2 in the present-day ocean-atmosphere system is causing ocean acidification, and is likely to cause a severe biodiversity decline in the future, mirroring effects in... -
Photochemical responses of the diatom Skeletonema costatum grown under elevat...
Variability in pH is a common occurrence in many aquatic environments, due to physical, chemical and biological processes. In coastal waters, lagoons, estuaries and inland... -
Temperature tolerance of different larval stages of the spider crab Hyas aran...
Exposure to elevated seawater PCO2 limits the thermal tolerance of crustaceans but the underlying mechanisms have not been comprehensively explored. Larval stages of crustaceans...
