Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological parameters of Sepia officinalis d...
Low pO2 values have been measured in the perivitelline fluids (PVF) of marine animal eggs on several occasions, especially towards the end of development, when embryonic oxygen... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and morphometric coordinates and morphology of t...
The world's oceans are slowly becoming more acidic. In the last 150 yr, the pH of the oceans has dropped by ~0.1 units, which is equivalent to a 25% increase in acidity.... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes of Sepia officinalis du...
Acidification of ocean surface waters by anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions is a currently developing scenario that warrants a broadening of research foci in the study... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
Ocean acidification (OA) is believed to be a major threat for near-future marine ecosystems, and that the most sensitive organisms will be calcifying organisms and the... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, primary production, biomass and calcification o...
Production (abundance and biomass) and net calcification rates of the coccolithophorid Pleurochrysis carterae under different partial pressures of CO2 (pCO2) were examined using... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes of Mytilus edulis durin...
Marine organisms are exposed to increasingly acidic oceans, as a result of equilibration of surface ocean water with rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations. In this study, we... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and survival of mollusks: Mercenaria mercenaria,...
We present experiments that examined the metamorphosis, growth, and survivorship of larvae from three species of commercially and ecologically valuable shellfish (Mercenaria... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and shell weights of Laternula elliptica, Yoldia...
Antarctic calcified macroorganisms are particularly vulnerable to ocean acidification because many are weakly calcified, the dissolution rates of calcium carbonate are inversely... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification during experiments with coral ...
The effect of increased CO2 partial pressure (pCO2) on the community metabolism (primary production, respiration, and calcification) of a coral community was investigated over... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification during experiments with coral ...
Previous studies have demonstrated that coral and algal calcification is tightly regulated by the calcium carbonate saturation state of seawater. This parameter is likely to... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, calcification and Zn uptake during experiments ...
Many studies have investigated the effect of an increase in pCO2 on coral calcification and photosynthesis but the physiological consequences are still relatively speculative.... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and dark respiration and photosynthetic capacity...
Ocean acidification is expected to lower the net accretion of coral reefs yet little is known about its effect on coral photophysiology. This study investigated the effect of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and dissolution rates by boring microflora durin...
Eight-month-old blocks of the coral Porites lobata colonized by natural Hawaiian euendolithic and epilithic communities were experimentally exposed to two different aqueous pCO2... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification in the Bahama Bank, 1964-1965
Carbon dioxide is lost from the ocean by calcium carbonate precipitation (-p), photosynthesis (-b) and gas evasion at the sea surface (-g). Among the most active sites are warm... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, calcification and respiration duirng experiment...
Among marine calcifiers, shelled pteropods are expected to be particularly sensitive to ocean acidification, generated by the uptake of anthropogenic CO2 by the ocean, and the... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
Atmospheric CO2 partial pressure (pCO2) is expected to increase to 700 µatm or more by the end of the present century. Anthropogenic CO2 is absorbed by the oceans, leading to... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
Anthropogenic elevation of atmospheric pCO2 is predicted to cause the pH of surface seawater to decline by 0.3-0.4 units by 2100 AD, causing a 50% reduction in seawater [CO3]... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processed during experiments with...
Uptake of anthropogenic CO2 by the oceans is altering seawater chemistry with potentially serious consequences for coral reef ecosystems due to the reduction of seawater pH and... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
An increasing number of studies are now reporting the effects of ocean acidification on a broad range of marine species, processes and systems. Many of these are investigating... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
Several experiments have shown a decrease of growth and calcification of organisms at decreased pH levels. There is a growing interest to focus on early life stages that are...
