Hysteresis between coral reef calcification and the seawater aragonite satura...
Some predictions of how ocean acidification (OA) will affect coral reefs assume a linear functional relationship between the ambient seawater aragonite saturation state (Omega... -
Seagrass ecosystem response to long-term high CO2 in a Mediterranean volcanic...
We examined the long-term effect of naturally acidified water on a Cymodocea nodosa meadow growing at a shallow volcanic CO2 vent in Vulcano Island (Italy). Seagrass and... -
Effects of ocean acidification on sponge communities
The effects of ocean acidification on lower invertebrates such as sponges may be pronounced because of their low capacity for acid-base regulation. However, so far, most studies... -
Growth response of an early successional assemblage of coralline algae and be...
The sustained absorption of anthropogenically released atmospheric CO2 by the oceans is modifying seawater carbonate chemistry, a process termed ocean acidification (OA). By the... -
Enhancement of photosynthetic carbon assimilation efficiency by phytoplankton...
A mesocosm experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of future climate conditions on photosynthesis and productivity of coastal phytoplankton. Natural phytoplankton... -
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... -
Experiment: Marine fungi may benefit from ocean acidification
Recent studies have discussed the consequences of ocean acidification for bacterial processes and diversity. However, the decomposition of complex substrates in marine... -
Effect of increased pCO2 on bacterial assemblage shifts in response to glucos...
Ocean acidification may stimulate primary production through increased availability of inorganic carbon in the photic zone, which may in turn change the biogenic flux of... -
Cascading Effects of Ocean Acidification in a Rocky Subtidal Community
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... -
Consumers mediate the effects of experimental ocean acidification and warming...
It is well known that ocean acidification can have profound impacts on marine organisms. However, we know little about the direct and indirect effects of ocean acidification and... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and benthic foraminiferal assemblage counts from...
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... -
Experiment: Competition between calcifying and noncalcifying temperate marine...
Since pre-industrial times, uptake of anthropogenic CO2 by surface ocean waters has caused a documented change of 0.1 pH units. Calcifying organisms are sensitive to elevated... -
The benthic foraminiferal community in a naturally CO2-rich coastal habitat o...
It is expected that the calcification of foraminifera will be negatively affected by the ongoing acidification of the oceans. Compared to the open oceans, these organisms are... -
Structural and functional vulnerability to elevated pCO2 in marine benthic co...
The effect of elevated pCO2/low pH on marine invertebrate benthic biodiversity, community structure and selected functional responses which underpin ecosystem services (such as... -
Rising CO2 and increased light exposure synergistically reduce marine primary...
Carbon dioxide and light are two major prerequisites of photosynthesis. Rising CO2 levels in oceanic surface waters in combination with ample light supply are therefore often... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and phytoplankton and eubacterial community comp...
On-deck CO2-Fe-manipulated incubation experiments were conducted using surface seawater collected from the Western Subarctic Gyre of the NW Pacific in the summer of 2008 to... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and net dissolution rate for experiment of Shira...
Acidification of the oceans by increasing anthropogenic CO2 emissions will cause a decrease in biogenic calcification and an increase in carbonate dissolution. Previous studies... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, virioplankton and bacterioplankton in a shallow...
Gas hydrothermal vents are used as a natural analogue for studying the effects of CO2 leakage from hypothetical shallow marine storage sites on benthic and pelagic systems. This... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and benthic marine community during experiments,...
Ocean acidification is predicted to impact all areas of the oceans and affect a diversity of marine organisms. However, the diversity of responses among species prevents clear... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, nitrogen concentration and macro community anal...
Rising anthropogenic CO2 emissions acidify the oceans, and cause changes to seawater carbon chemistry. Bacterial biofilm communities reflect environmental disturbances and may...
