Mineralogical response of the Mediterranean crustose coralline alga Lithophyl...
Red calcareous coralline algae are thought to be among the organisms most vulnerable to ocean acidification due to the high solubility of their magnesium calcite skeleton.... -
Low-steady-state metabolism induced by elevated CO2 increases resilience to U...
Global change factors derived from anthropogenic activities such as increased CO2 and ultraviolet radiation (UVR) have direct impacts on the physiological responses of organisms... -
The effect of CO2 enrichment on net photosynthesis of the red alga Furcellari...
Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to the atmosphere are causing reduction in the global ocean pH, also known as ocean acidification. This change alters the... -
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... -
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... -
A direct CO2 control system for ocean acidification experiments: testing effe...
Most ocean acidification (OA) experimental systems rely on pH as an indirect way to control CO2. However, accurate pH measurements are difficult to obtain and shifts in... -
Impact of high CO2 on the geochemistry of the coralline algae Lithothamnion g...
Coralline algae are a significant component of the benthic ecosystem. Their ability to withstand physical stresses in high energy environments relies on their skeletal structure... -
Environmental stability affects phenotypic evolution in a globally distribute...
Marine phytoplankton can evolve rapidly when confronted with aspects of climate change because of their large population sizes and fast generation times. Despite this, the... -
Plasticity predicts evolution in a marine alga
In order to allow full comparability with other ocean acidification data sets, the R package seacarb (Gattuso et al, 2015) was used to compute a complete and consistent set of... -
Effects of in situ CO2 enrichment on structural characteristics, photosynthes...
Seagrass is expected to benefit from increased carbon availability under future ocean acidification. This hypothesis has been little tested by in situ manipulation. To test for... -
Direct effects of increased CO2 concentrations in seawater on the net primary...
Charophytes are found in fresh and brackish waters across the globe and play key roles in coastal ecosystems. However, their response to increasing CO2 is not well understood.... -
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... -
Effects of ocean acidification on Posidonia oceanica epiphytic community and ...
Biological interactions can alter predictions that are based on single-species physiological response. It is known that leaf segments of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica will... -
Effect of ocean acidification and pH fluctuations on the growth and developme...
Coralline algae are susceptible to the changes in the seawater carbonate system associated with ocean acidification (OA). However, the coastal environments in which corallines... -
Responses of three tropical seagrass species to CO2 enrichment
Increased atmospheric carbon dioxide leads to ocean acidification and carbon dioxide (CO2) enrichment of seawater. Given the important ecological functions of seagrass meadows,... -
Two intertidal, non-calcifying macroalgae (Palmaria palmata and Saccharina la...
Ocean acidification, the result of increased dissolution of carbon dioxide (CO2) in seawater, is a leading subject of current research. The effects of acidification on... -
Ocean acidification affects the phyto-zoo plankton trophic transfer efficiency
The critical role played by copepods in ocean ecology and biogeochemistry warrants an understanding of how these animals may respond to ocean acidification (OA). Whilst an... -

This study examines climate change impacts (increased temperature and pCO2) on canopy-forming Desmarestia anceps and D. menziesii from the western Antarctic Peninsula during the... -
CO2 and inorganic nutrient enrichment affect the performance of a calcifying ...
Ocean acidification studies in the past decade have greatly improved our knowledge of how calcifying organisms respond to increased surface ocean CO2 levels. It has become... -
Ocean acidification alters the calcareous microstructure of the green macro-a...
Decreases in seawater pH and carbonate saturation state (Omega) following the continuous increase in atmospheric CO2 represent a process termed ocean acidification, which is...
