Long-term acclimation to elevated pCO2 alters carbon metabolism and reduces g...
Increasing atmospheric CO2 levels are driving changes in the seawater carbonate system, resulting in higher pCO2 and reduced pH (ocean acidification). Many studies on marine... -
Enrichments (DIC and DOC) on the photosynthesis and calcification rates of tw...
Coral reefs worldwide are affected by increasing dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and organic carbon (DOC) concentrations due to ocean acidification (OA) and coastal... -
Effects of acute ocean acidification on spatially-diverse polar pelagic foodw...
The polar oceans are experiencing some of the largest levels of ocean acidification (OA) resulting from the uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2). Our understanding of... -
Ocean acidification and increased temperature have both positive and negative...
The combined effect of ocean acidification and warming is expected to have significant effects on several traits of marine organisms. The gastropod Concholepas concholepas is a... -
Parasitic infection: a buffer against ocean acidification?
Recently, there has been a concerted research effort by marine scientists to quantify the sensitivity of marine organisms to ocean acidification (OA). Empirical data generated... -
Hyperventilation and blood acid-base balance in hypercapnia exposed red drum ...
Hyperventilation is a common response in fish exposed to elevated water CO2. It is believed to lessen the respiratory acidosis associated with hypercapnia by lowering arterial... -
Ocean acidification alters fish-jellyfish symbiosis
Symbiotic relationships are common in nature, and are important for individual fitness and sustaining species populations. Global change is rapidly altering environmental... -
Antioxidant response of the hard shelled mussel Mytilus coruscus exposed to r...
Ocean acidification (OA) and hypoxic events are increasing worldwide problems, their interactive effects have not been well clarified, although their co-occurrence is prevalent.... -
Metabolic responses to high pCO2 conditions at a CO2 vent site in juveniles o...
We are starting to understand the relationship between metabolic rate responses and species' ability to respond to exposure to high pCO2. However, most of our knowledge has come... -
The effects of hypercapnia on the West Coast rock lobster (Jasus lalandii) th...
The cold water palinurid Jasus lalandii ('West Coast rock lobster') is a commercially important crustacean in South Africa and Namibia and inhabits the Benguela Current Eastern... -
A longitudinal study of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) larval development...
Three cohorts of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) larvae at Whiskey Creek Shellfish Hatchery (WCH) in Netarts Bay, Oregon, were monitored for stable isotope incorporation and... -
Biogeographic variability in the physiological response of the cold-water cor...
While ocean acidification is a global issue, the severity of ecosystem effects is likely to vary considerably at regional scales. The lack of understanding of how... -
Effects of short-term hypoxia and seawater acidification on hemocyte response...
Hypoxia often intensifies with rising dissolved CO2, but the concurrent effects of hypoxia and acidification on bivalves are largely unknown. In this study, immune responses of... -
Anti-predatory responses of the thick shell mussel Mytilus coruscus exposed t...
Ocean acidification and hypoxia, both caused by anthropogenic activities, have showed deleterious impacts on marine animals. However, their combined effect on the mussel's... -
Behavioral responses of brown shrimp (Crangon crangon) to reduced seawater pH...
Large-scale storage of CO2 within sub-sea geological formations is a viable option for reducing the volume of this greenhouse gas released directly to the atmosphere from... -
Acidification alters predator-prey interactions of blue crab Callinectes sapi...
Acidification due to anthropogenic CO2 pollution, along with episodic or persistent acidification that occurs in coastal environments, will likely result in severe seasonal... -
Low-steady-state metabolism induced by elevated CO2 increases resilience to U...
Global change factors derived from anthropogenic activities such as increased CO2 and ultraviolet radiation (UVR) have direct impacts on the physiological responses of organisms... -
Physiological plasticity and local adaptation to elevated pCO2 in calcareous ...
To project how ocean acidification will impact biological communities in the future, it is critical to understand the potential for local adaptation and the physiological... -
Seawater carbon chemistry and regenerative capacity of in adult sea urchins s...
Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) has resulted in a change in seawater chemistry and lowering of pH, referred to as ocean acidification. Understanding how different... -
Light availability and temperature, not increased CO2, will structure future ...
We evaluated the photosynthetic performance of Posidonia oceanica during short-term laboratory exposures to ambient and elevated temperatures (24-25 °C and 29-30 °C) warming and...
