Seawater carbonate chemistry and the growth of North Atlantic bivalves
Coastal zones can be focal points of acidification where the influx of atmospheric CO2 can be compounded by additional sources of acidity that may collectively impair calcifying... -
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... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and damselfish Pomacentrus amboinensis aerobic p...
Cleaning symbioses are key mutualistic interactions where cleaners remove ectoparasites and tissues from client fishes. Such interactions elicit beneficial effects on clients'... -
Populations of Pacific Oysters Crassostrea gigas Respond Variably to Elevated...
Ocean acidification is anticipated to decrease calcification and increase dissolution of shelled molluscs. Molluscs with thinner and weaker shells may be more susceptible to... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and Synechococcus growth from pCO2 experiments
Many microbial photoautotrophs depend on heterotrophic bacteria for accomplishing essential functions. Environmental changes, however, could alter or eliminate such... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and net calcification of Porites, Zoanthus growt...
Ocean acidification (OA) threatens the persistence of reef-building corals and the habitat they provide. While species-specific effects of OA on marine organisms could have... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and the recruitment of macroalgal marine forests
Marine forests are shrinking globally due to several anthropogenic impacts including climate change. Forest-forming macroalgae, such as Cystoseira s.l. species, can be... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and grazing and diet preference in Littorina lit...
Ocean acidification and eutrophication have direct, positive effects on the growth of many marine macroalgae, potentially resulting in macroalgal blooms and shifts in ecosystem... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and prey choice of the girdled dogwhelk Trochia ...
Predator–prey relationships can drive community dynamics in marine systems, but it remains unclear how future changes in seawater temperatures and pH will influence these... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and in situ and laboratory measurements of calci...
Ocean acidification (OA) is generally assumed to negatively impact calcification rates of marine organisms. At a local scale however, biological activity of macrophytes may... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and host–pathogen interactions: blue mussels, My...
Ocean acidification (OA) can shift the ecological balance between interacting organisms. In this study, we have used a model-system to illustrate the interaction between a... -
The effects of elevated pCO2 and nutrient levels on Dasysiphonia and Porphyra...
Coastal ecosystems are prone to multiple anthropogenic and natural stressors including eutrophication, acidification, and invasive species. While the growth of some macroalgae... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and growth of Saccharina latissima and herbivory...
The laminarialean kelp, Saccharina latissima, is a common macroalgae along rocky shorelines that is also frequently used in aquaculture. This study examined how ocean... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and growth of Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus ...
Anthropogenic CO2 emissions are projected to lower the pH of the ocean 0.3 units by 2100. Previous studies suggested that Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus, the numerically... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and coral-coral competition
As carbon dioxide (CO2) levels increase, coral reefs and other marine systems will be affected by the joint stressors of ocean acidification (OA) and warming. The effects of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and Nucella behavior
Local adaptation can cause predator populations to vary in traits and their effects on prey, but few studies have tested whether divergent predator populations respond... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and growth and photosynthetic oxygen rate and re...
Red tide and green tide are two common algal blooms that frequently occur in many areas in the global oceans. The algae causing red tide and green tide often interact with each... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and the predator–prey interactions of a pair of ...
Oceans of the future are predicted to be more acidic and noisier, particularly along the productive coastal fringe. This study examined the independent and combined effects of... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and survival and growth of four agglutinating fo...
Agglutinated foraminifera create a shell by assembling particles from the sediment and comprise a significant part of the foraminiferal fauna. Despite their high abundance and... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and the health and growth of eelgrass and the ma...
Climate change is affecting the health and physiology of marine organisms and altering species interactions. Ocean acidification (OA) threatens calcifying organisms such as the...
