Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification and productivity of sporadic c...
Estimates of coral reef ecosystem calcification (Gnet) and productivity (Pnet) provide insight into coral community health and functionality in response to short- and long-term... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and composition of intertidal and subtidal commu...
Rising atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide are causing surface seawater pH and carbonate ion concentrations to fall in a process known as ocean acidification. To assess... -
Community-level sensitivity of a calcifying ecosystem to acute in situ CO2 en...
The rate of change in ocean carbonate chemistry is a vital determinant in the magnitude of effects observed. Benthic marine ecosystems are facing an increasing risk of acute CO2... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and community structure of marine biofouling com...
Ocean acidification may have far-reaching consequences for marine community and ecosystem dynamics, but its full impacts remain poorly understood due to the difficulty of... -
Environmental and chemical measurements, and coral calcification rates in Ber...
Modern reef-building corals sustain a wide range of ecosystem services because of their ability to build calcium carbonate reef systems. The influence of environmental variables... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and trophic flows and the living biomass of detr...
Global warming and ocean acidification are forecast to exert significant impacts on marine ecosystems worldwide. However, most of these projections are based on ecological... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and oxygen concentrations in the Greenland tidal...
The hypothesis that Arctic tidal pools provide environmental conditions suitable for calcifiers during summer, thereby potentially providing refugia for calcifiers in an... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and metabolism and growth of epilithic and endol...
Turf algal assemblages are ubiquitous primary producers on coral reefs, but little is known about the response of this diverse group to ocean acidification (OA) across different... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and percentage cover of macroalgal species at th...
Beneficial effects of CO2 on photosynthetic organisms will be a key driver of ecosystem change under ocean acidification. Predicting the responses of macroalgal species to ocean... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and variation in community development
Ocean acidification represents a pervasive environmental change that is predicted to affect a wide range of species, yet our understanding of the emergent ecosystem impacts is... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) sediment dissolution
Ocean acidification (OA), attributed to the sequestration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) into the surface ocean, and coastal eutrophication, attributed in part to land-use... -
Seawater carbon chemistry and net primary production and net calcification in...
The threat represented by ocean acidification (OA) for coral reefs has received considerable attention because of the sensitivity of calcifiers to changing seawater carbonate... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and ecosystem calcification, community productio...
Coral reefs are built of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) produced biogenically by a diversity of calcifying plants, animals and microbes. As the ocean warms and acidifies, there is... -
Antagonistic effects of ocean acidification and rising sea surface temperatur...
Increasing atmospheric CO2 is raising sea surface temperature (SST) and increasing seawater CO2 concentrations, resulting in a lower oceanic pH (ocean acidification; OA), which... -
Interannual stability of organic to inorganic carbon production on a coral atoll
Ocean acidification has the potential to adversely affect marine calcifying organisms, with substantial ocean ecosystem impacts projected over the 21st century. Characterizing... -
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... -
Distribution and functional traits of polychaetes in a CO2 vent system: winne...
We report on fine taxonomic and functional analyses of polychaetes associated with rocky reefs along a gradient of ocean acidification (OA) at the volcanic CO2 vent system off... -
Shift from coral to macroalgae dominance on a volcanically acidified reef
Rising anthropogenic CO2 in the atmosphere is accompanied by an increase in oceanic CO2 and a concomitant decline in seawater pH (ref. 1). This phenomenon, known as ocean... -
The synergistic effects of ocean acidification and organic metabolism on calc...
Ocean acidification (OA) is expected to reduce the net ecosystem calcification (NEC) rates and overall accretion of coral reef ecosystems. However, despite the fact that... -
Nighttime dissolution in a temperate coastal ocean ecosystem increases under ...
Anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing ocean acidification, lowering seawater aragonite (CaCO3) saturation state (Omega arag), with potentially substantial...
