In temperate rocky reefs of the Mediterranean, the corals Cladocora caespitosa and Astroides calycularis live at sites with ambient seawater pH and at adjacent submarine...

Here, we used boron-based geochemical proxies (δ11B, B/Ca) to investigate how three common Hawaiian coral species (Montipora capitata, Porites compressa, Porites lobata)...

This study aimed to simulate the indirect interaction between pelagic Sargassum spp. and Acropora cervicornis coral fragments from the Florida Reef in current-day and future...

A mesocosm experiment was conducted to investigate whether three levels of decreasing seawater pH could alter the activity of key enzymes involved in the energy metabolism in...

Here, we examine the effects of future seawater conditions (OW and OA) on the calcification and photosynthetic efficiency of two CCA species, Hydrolithon boergesenii and...

In this study, we used controlled aquaria experiments to investigate the effects of acidification and elevated temperature treatments on nutrient cycling in the larval...

Here, we take advantage of the ability to sample genetically distinct coral colonies (genets) to produce genetically identical clonal fragments (ramets) and use an identical...

Following natural thermal stress in two consecutive years (2014 and 2015), we evaluated the effects of feeding and simulated ocean acidification on the physiological recovery of...

In the present study, we investigated from July 2010 to April 2012 the effects of in situ exposure to different pH levels (range pHTS 7.4–8.1) and seasonal temperatures (range...

Here, we investigated these effects on the reef-building corals Acropora cytherea, Pocillopora verrucosa, and Porites cylindrica. We preconditioned corals to a control (pH 8.0)...

We examined gene expression responses of >2-year coral transplant experiment to ambient and low pH common garden sites of three species of reef-building corals (Porites...

We carried out a manipulative aquarium experiment for 21 days to study the response of the widespread pulsating soft coral Xenia umbellata to simulated OA conditions. We...

This dataset includes physiological parameters of three Hawaiian coral species (Porites compressa, Porites lobata, and Montipora capitata) over 22-month mesocosm experiment. The...

We conducted a six-month aquarium experiment with three life stages of Caryophyllia huinayensis to study their physiological response (survival, somatic growth, calcification...

This dataset comprises gene expression data in the deep pelagic jellyfish Periphylla periphylla exposed to anthropogenic disturbance. Specifically, we tested the effects of...

The absorbtion of human-emitted CO2 by the oceans (elevated PCO2) is projected to alter the physiological performance of coral reef organisms by perturbing seawater chemistry...

Coral reefs are threatened by ocean acidification (OA), which depresses net calcification of corals, calcified algae, and coral reef communities. These effects have been...

Ocean acidification (OA) is a major threat to coral reefs, which are built by calcareous species. However, long-term assessments of the impacts of OA are scarce, limiting the...

Ocean acidification typically reduces calcification in tropical marine corals but the mechanism for this process is not understood. We use skeletal boron geochemistry (B/Ca and...

There are increasing concerns that the current rate of climate change might outpace the ability of reef-building corals to adapt to future conditions. Work on model systems has...
