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... -
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... -
Responses of the Emiliania huxleyi Proteome to Ocean Acidification
Ocean acidification due to rising atmospheric CO2 is expected to affect the physiology of important calcifying marine organisms, but the nature and magnitude of change is yet to... -
Temperature Dependent Effects of Elevated CO2 on Shell Composition and Mechan...
The majority of marine benthic invertebrates protect themselves from predators by producing calcareous tubes or shells that have remarkable mechanical strength. An elevation of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and proportion of different dissolution levels i...
The carbonate chemistry of the surface ocean is rapidly changing with ocean acidification, a result of human activities. In the upper layers of the Southern Ocean, aragonite-a... -
Effects of pre-hatching pCO2 on development and survival of zoea stages of Ar...
Sensitivity of marine crustaceans to anthropogenic CO2 emissions and the associated acidification of the oceans may be less than that of other, especially lower, invertebrates.... -
Effects of ocean acidification on respiration, growth and C:N ratio of arctic...
Early life stages of marine crustaceans respond sensitively to elevated seawater PCO2. However, the underlying physiological mechanisms have not been studied well. We therefore... -
Response of benthic foraminifera to ocean acidification in their natural sedi...
Calcifying foraminifera are expected to be endangered by ocean acidification; however, the response of a complete community kept in natural sediment and over multiple... -
Stress-tolerant corals of Florida Bay are vulnerable to ocean acidification
In situ calcification measurements tested the hypothesis that corals from environments (Florida Bay, USA) that naturally experience large swings in pCO2 and pH will be tolerant... -
Impact of changing carbonate chemistry, temperature, and salinity on growth a...
The present study investigated the combined effects of ocean acidification, temperature, and salinity on growth and test degradation of Ammonia aomoriensis. This species is one... -
Environmental controls on the Emiliania huxleyi calcite mass
Although ocean acidification is expected to impact (bio)calcification by decreasing the seawater carbonate ion concentration, [CO3]2-, there exists evidence of non-uniform... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, physiology and skeletal mineralogy of coralline...
Marine organisms inhabiting environments where pCO2/pH varies naturally are suggested to be relatively resilient to future ocean acidification. To test this hypothesis, the... -
The influence of temperature and seawater carbonate saturation state on 13C-1...
The shells of marine mollusks are widely used archives of past climate and ocean chemistry. Whilst the measurement of mollusk delta 18O to develop records of past climate change... -
Ocean acidification induces multi-generational decline in copepod naupliar pr...
Climate change, including ocean acidification (OA), presents fundamental challenges to marine biodiversity and sustained ecosystem health. We determined reproductive response... -
Photosynthate translocation increases in response to low seawater pH in a cor...
This study has examined the effect of low seawater pH values (induced by an increased CO2 partial pressure) on the rates of photosynthesis, as well as on the carbon budget and... -
Whole transcriptome analysis of the coral Acropora millepora reveals complex ...
The impact of ocean acidification (OA) on coral calcification, a subject of intense current interest, is poorly understood in part because of the presence of symbionts in adult... -
Ocean acidification accelerates reef bioerosion
In the recent discussion how biotic systems may react to ocean acidification caused by the rapid rise in carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2) in the marine realm, substantial... -
Effects of ocean acidification and global warming on reef bioerosion-lessons ...
Coral reefs are under threat, exerted by a number of interacting effects inherent to the present climate change, including ocean acidification and global warming. Bioerosion...
