Seawater carbonate chemistry and body size, respiration and photosynthesis of...
Body size has large effects on organism physiology, but these effects remain poorly understood in modular animals with complex morphologies. Using two trials of a 24 day... -
The effects of pH and pCO2 on photosynthesis and respiration in the diatom Th...
The response of marine phytoplankton to the ongoing increase in atmospheric pCO2 reflects the consequences of both increased CO2 concentration and decreased pH in surface... -
Physiological plasticity and local adaptation to elevated pCO2 in calcareous ...
To project how ocean acidification will impact biological communities in the future, it is critical to understand the potential for local adaptation and the physiological... -
Increased temperature, rather than elevated CO2, modulates the carbon assimil...
Ocean acidification and warming are affecting with special intensity the Arctic Ocean. Arctic coastal ecosystems are dominated by kelp forests with a high biomass production,... -
Effects of high dissolved inorganic and organic carbon availability on the ph...
Coral reefs are facing major global and local threats due to climate change-induced increases in dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and because of land-derived increases in... -
Interactive effects of ocean acidification and warming on coral reef associat...
Epilithic algal communities play critical ecological roles on coral reefs, but their response to individual and interactive effects of ocean warming (OW) and ocean acidification... -
Enrichments (DIC and DOC) on the photosynthesis and calcification rates of tw...
Coral reefs worldwide are affected by increasing dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and organic carbon (DOC) concentrations due to ocean acidification (OA) and coastal... -
Coral pH regulation of the calcifying fluid is modulated by seawater dissolve...
Reef coral calcification depends on regulation of pH in the internal calcifying fluid in which the coral skeleton forms. However, little is known about calcifying fluid pH... -
The physiological response of two green calcifying algae from the great barri...
Increasing dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) concentrations associated with ocean acidification can affect marine calcifiers, but local factors, such as high dissolved organic... -
Coralline algal physiology is more adversely affected by elevated temperature...
In this study we analyzed the physiological responses of coralline algae to ocean acidification (OA) and global warming, by exposing algal thalli of three species with... -
Microsensor studies on Padina from a natural CO2 seep: implications of morpho...
Low seawater pH can be harmful to many calcifying marine organisms, but the calcifying macroalgae Padina spp. flourish at natural submarine carbon dioxide seeps where seawater... -
Preconditioning in the reef-building coral Pocillopora damicornis and the pot...
Coral reefs are globally threatened by climate change-related ocean warming and ocean acidification (OA). To date, slow-response mechanisms such as genetic adaptation have been... -
Increased CO2 modifies the carbon balance and the photosynthetic yield of two...
Ocean acidification affects with special intensity Arctic ecosystems, being marine photosynthetic organisms a primary target, although the consequences of this process in the... -
Decreased light availability can amplify negative impacts of ocean acidificat...
Coral reef organisms are increasingly and simultaneously affected by global and local stressors such as ocean acidification (OA) and reduced light availability. However,... -
Calcareous green alga Halimeda tolerates ocean acidification conditions at tr...
We investigated ecological, physiological, and skeletal characteristics of the calcifying green alga Halimeda grown at CO2 seeps (pHtotal ~ 7.8) and compared them to those at... -
The effects of thermal and high-CO2 stresses on the metabolism and surroundin...
The effects of elevated temperature and high pCO2 on the metabolism of Galaxea fascicularis were studied with oxygen and pH microsensors. Photosynthesis and respiration rates... -
Acclimatization of the crustose coralline alga Porolithon onkodes to variable...
Ocean acidification (OA) has important implications for the persistence of coral reef ecosystems, due to potentially negative effects on biomineralization. Many coral reefs are... -
The photo-physiological response of a model cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosi...
We measured the relationship between CO2-induced seawater acidification, photo-physiological performance and intracellular pH (pHi) in a model cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis... -
Diurnal fluctuations in seawater pH influence the response of a calcifying ma...
Coastal ecosystems that are characterized by kelp forests encounter daily pH fluctuations, driven by photosynthesis and respiration, which are larger than pH changes owing to... -
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...
