Ocean acidification has no effect on thermal bleaching in the coral Seriatopo...
The objective of this study was to test whether elevated pCO2 predicted for the year 2100 (85.1 Pa) affects bleaching in the coral Seriatopora caliendrum (Ehrenberg 1834) either... -
In Situ effects of low pH and elevated HCO3 on juvenile massive Porites spp. ...
Juvenile colonies of massive Porites spp. were exposed to manipulated pH and bicarbonate ([HCO3-]) in situ to test the hypothesis that ocean acidification (OA) does not affect... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and sea urchin larval size in a laboratory exper...
Ocean acidification results from an increase in the concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) impacts on marine calcifying species, which is predicted to become more... -
Influence of sediment acidification and water flow on sediment acceptance and...
Although ocean acidification is expected to reduce carbonate saturation and yield negative impacts on open-ocean calcifying organisms in the near future, acidification in... -
Coral energy reserves and calcification in a high-CO2 world at two temperatures
Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations threaten coral reefs globally by causing ocean acidification (OA) and warming. Yet, the combined effects of elevated pCO2 and temperature... -
Acid-base regulation in the Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister)
Homeostatic regulation allows organisms to secure basic physiological processes in a varying environment. To counteract fluctuations in ambient carbonate system speciation due... -
The responses of eight coral reef calcifiers to increasing partial pressure o...
The objective of this study was to investigate whether a tipping point exists in the calcification responses of coral reef calcifiers to CO2. We compared the effects of six... -
Increased feeding and nutrient excretion of adult antarctic krill, Euphausia ...
Ocean acidification has a wide-ranging potential for impacting the physiology and metabolism of zooplankton. Sufficiently elevated CO2 concentrations can alter internal... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and mantle gene expression patterns of the Balti...
In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Lavigne and Gattuso, 2011) was used to compute a complete and consistent... -
Seawater acidification by CO2 in a coastal lagoon environment: Effects on lif...
The carbonate chemistry of seawater from the Ria Formosa lagoon was experimentally manipulated, by diffusing pure CO2, to attain two reduced pH levels, by -0.3 and -0.6 pH... -
CO2-induced fertilization impairment in Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis col...
Fertilization depends on distribution and aggregation patterns of sea urchins which influence gamete contact time and may potentially enhance their vulnerability to ocean... -
Elevated CO2 affects the behavior of an ecologically and economically importa...
We tested the effect of near-future CO2 levels (= 490, 570, 700, and 960 µatm CO2) on the olfactory responses and activity levels of juvenile coral trout, Plectropomus... -
Selective mortality associated with variation in CO2 tolerance in a marine fish
Predicted future CO2 levels can affect reproduction, growth, and behaviour of many marine organisms. However, the capacity of species to adapt to predicted changes in ocean... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, clearance rates, respiration rates, condition i...
The decline in ocean water pH and changes in carbonate saturation states through anthropogenically mediated increases in atmospheric CO2 levels may pose a hazard to marine... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, fertilization and early development of the cora...
Outbreaks of crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS), Acanthaster planci, contribute to major declines of coral reef ecosystems throughout the Indo-Pacific. As the oceans warm and... -
Does Encapsulation Protect Embryos from the Effects of Ocean Acidification? T...
Early life history stages of marine organisms are generally thought to be more sensitive to environmental stress than adults. Although most marine invertebrates are broadcast... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, thickness and carbonate elemental composition o...
Ocean surface CO2 levels are increasing in line with rising atmospheric CO2 and could exceed 900 µatm by year 2100, with extremes above 2000 µatm in some coastal habitats. The... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, thickness and carbonate elemental composition o...
Continuous anthropogenic CO2 emissions to the atmosphere and uptake by the oceans will cause a reduction of seawater pH and saturation state (Omega) of CaCO3 minerals from which... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and larval development and settlement of the sea...
We studied the effects of temperature and pH on larval development, settlement and juvenile survival of a Mediterranean population of the sea urchin Arbacia lixula. Three... -
Effects of Ocean Acidification and Warming on Sperm Activity and Early Life S...
Larval stages are among those most vulnerable to ocean acidification (OA). Projected atmospheric CO2 levels for the end of this century may lead to negative impacts on...
