The potential of ocean acidifi cation on suppressing larval development in th...
We evaluated the effect of pH on larval development in larval Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) and blood cockle ( Arca inflata Reeve). The larvae were reared at pH 8.2... -
One size fits all: stability of metabolic scaling under warming and ocean aci...
Responses by marine species to ocean acidification (OA) have recently been shown to be modulated by external factors including temperature, food supply and salinity. However the... -
Phytoplankton responses and associated carbon cycling during shipboard carbon...
The ongoing oceanic uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) is significantly altering the carbonate chemistry of seawater, a phenomenon referred to as ocean acidification.... -
Empirical Evidence Reveals Seasonally Dependent Reduction in Nitrification in...
Research so far has provided little evidence that benthic biogeochemical cycling is affected by ocean acidification under realistic climate change scenarios. We measured... -
Bicarbonate uptake via an anion exchange protein is the main mechanism of ino...
Macrocystis pyrifera is a widely distributed, highly productive, seaweed. It is known to use bicarbonate (HCO3-) from seawater in photosynthesis and the main mechanism of... -
Could the acid-base status of Antarctic sea urchins indicate a better-than-ex...
Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration alters the chemistry of the oceans towards more acidic conditions. Polar oceans are particularly affected due to their low... -
Projected near-future CO2 levels increase activity and alter defensive behavi...
Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels projected to occur in the oceans by the end of this century cause a range of behavioural effects in fish, but whether other highly active marine... -
Nutrient availability affects the response of the calcifying chlorophyte Hali...
Atmospheric carbon dioxide emissions cause a decrease in the pH and aragonite saturation state of surface ocean water. As a result, calcifying organisms are expected to suffer... -
Elevated CO2 affects embryonic development and larval phototaxis in a tempera...
As an effect of anthropogenic CO2 emissions, the chemistry of the world's oceans is changing. Understanding how this will affect marine organisms and ecosystems are critical in... -
Interactions among chronic and acute impacts on coral recruits: the importanc...
Newly settled recruits typically suffer high mortality from disturbances, but rapid growth reduces their mortality once size-escape thresholds are attained. Ocean acidification... -
Grazing under experimental hypercapnia and elevated temperature does not affe...
Chitons (class Polyplacophora) are benthic grazing molluscs with an eight-part aragonitic shell armature. The radula, a serial tooth ribbon that extends internally more than... -
Coral-algae metabolism and diurnal changes in the CO2-carbonate system of bul...
Precise measurements were conducted in continuous flow seawater mesocosms located in full sunlight that compared metabolic response of coral, coral-macroalgae and macroalgae... -
Contrasting effects of ocean acidification on tropical fleshy and calcareous ...
Despite the heightened awareness of ocean acidification (OA) effects on marine organisms, few studies empirically juxtapose biological responses to CO2 manipulations across... -
Offspring sensitivity to ocean acidification changes seasonally in a coastal ...
Experimental assessments of species vulnerabilities to ocean acidification are rapidly increasing in number, yet the potential for short- and long-term adaptation to high CO2 by... -
1H NMR Metabolomics Reveals Contrasting Response by Male and Female Mussels E...
Human activities are fundamentally altering the chemistry of the world's oceans. Ocean acidification (OA) is occurring against a background of warming and an increasing... -
Effects of seawater pCO2 and temperature on shell growth, shell stability, co...
Acidification of the World's oceans may directly impact reproduction, performance and shell formation of marine calcifying organisms. In addition, since shell production is... -
Trace element profiles of the sea anemone Anemonia viridis living nearby a na...
Ocean acidification (OA) is not an isolated threat, but acts in concert with other impacts on ecosystems and species. Coastal marine invertebrates will have to face the... -
Decline in Coccolithophore Diversity and Impact on Coccolith Morphogenesis Al...
A natural pH gradient caused by marine CO2 seeps off Vulcano Island (Italy) was used to assess the effects of ocean acidification on coccolithophores, which are abundant... -
Ocean acidification reduces the crystallographic control in juvenile mussel s...
Global climate change threatens the oceans as anthropogenic carbon dioxide causes ocean acidification and reduced carbonate saturation. Future projections indicate under... -
Studying the effect of CO2-induced acidification on sediment toxicity using a...
Carbon capture and storage is increasingly being considered one of the most efficient approaches to mitigate the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere associated with anthropogenic...
