Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
Anthropogenic elevation of atmospheric pCO2 is predicted to cause the pH of surface seawater to decline by 0.3-0.4 units by 2100 AD, causing a 50% reduction in seawater [CO3]... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processed during experiments with...
Uptake of anthropogenic CO2 by the oceans is altering seawater chemistry with potentially serious consequences for coral reef ecosystems due to the reduction of seawater pH and... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
An increasing number of studies are now reporting the effects of ocean acidification on a broad range of marine species, processes and systems. Many of these are investigating... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
Several experiments have shown a decrease of growth and calcification of organisms at decreased pH levels. There is a growing interest to focus on early life stages that are... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and Globigerinoides sacculifer biological proces...
The effect of carbonate ion concentration ([CO3]) on calcification rates estimated from shell size and weight was investigated in the planktonic foraminifera Orbulina universa... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and aerobic performance of coral reef fishes dur...
Concerns about the impacts of ocean acidification on marine life have mostly focused on how reduced carbonate saturation affects calcifying organisms. Here, we show that levels... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and processes during experiments with Emiliania ...
The physiological performance of two coccolithophore species,Emiliania huxleyi and Coccolithus braarudii, was investigated during long-term exposure to elevated pCO2 levels.... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes duirng experiments with...
There are serious concerns that ocean acidification will combine with the effects of global warming to cause major shifts in marine ecosystems, but there is a lack of field data... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
The Arctic Ocean and its associated ecosystems face numerous challenges over the coming century. Increasing atmospheric CO2 is causing increasing warming and ice melting as well... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
The persistence of most coastal marine species depends on larvae finding suitable adult habitat at the end of an offshore dispersive stage that can last weeks or months. We... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
Future scenarios for the oceans project combined developments of CO2 accumulation and global warming and their impact on marine ecosystems. The synergistic impact of both... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and processes during experiments with cyanobacte...
We investigated carbon acquisition by the N2-fixing cyanobacterium Trichodesmium IMS101 in response to CO2 levels of 15.1, 37.5, and 101.3 Pa (equivalent to 150, 370, and 1000... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and processes during experiments with phytoplank...
The response of the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi to rising CO2 concentrations is well documented for acclimated cultures where cells are exposed to the CO2 treatments for... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
The effect of pCO2 on carbon acquisition and intracellular assimilation was investigated in the three bloom-forming diatom species, Eucampia zodiacus (Ehrenberg), Skeletonema... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and biological processes during experiments with...
Anthropogenic elevation of atmospheric carbon dioxide (pCO2) is making the oceans more acidic, thereby reducing their degree of saturation with respect to calcium carbonate... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry, pigments and biological processes during experi...
Previous studies have shown that increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations affect calcification in some planktonic and macroalgal calcifiers due to the changed carbonate... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and processes during experiments with benthic fo...
Evidence of increasing concentrations of dissolved carbon dioxide, especially in the surface ocean and its associated impacts on calcifying organisms, is accumulating. Among... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and shell length of Mediterranean pteropod Cavol...
Larvae of the Mediterranean pteropod Cavolinia inflexa were maintained at controlled pHT values of 8.1, 7.82 and 7.51, equivalent respectively to pCO2 levels of 380, 857 and... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and calcification during experiments with a cora...
Physiological data and models of coral calcification indicate that corals utilize a combination of seawater bicarbonate and (mainly) respiratory CO2 for calcification, not... -
Seawater carbonate chemistry and processes during experiments with amphipod G...
We report an investigation of the effects of increases in pCO2 on the survival, growth and molecular physiology of the neritic amphipod Gammarus locusta which has a cosmopolitan...
