Seawater carbonate chemistry and larval length, respiration and survival of s...
Phenotypic plasticity is expected to play a major adaptive role in the response of species to ocean acidification (OA), by providing broader tolerances to changes in pCO2... -
Physiological plasticity and local adaptation to elevated pCO2 in calcareous ...
To project how ocean acidification will impact biological communities in the future, it is critical to understand the potential for local adaptation and the physiological... -
Sea hare Aplysia punctata (mollusca: Gastropoda) can maintain shell calcifica...
Ocean acidification is expected to cause energetic constraints upon marine calcifying organisms such as molluscs and echinoderms, because of the increased costs of building or... -
Increased temperature, rather than elevated CO2, modulates the carbon assimil...
Ocean acidification and warming are affecting with special intensity the Arctic Ocean. Arctic coastal ecosystems are dominated by kelp forests with a high biomass production,... -
Seawater acidification more than warming presents a challenge for two Antarct...
Elevated atmospheric pCO2 concentrations are triggering seawater pH reductions and seawater temperature increases along the western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP). These factors in... -
Otolith size and the vestibulo-ocular reflex of larvae of white seabass Atrac...
We investigated vestibular function and otolith size (OS) in larvae of white seabass Atractoscion nobilis exposed to high partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2). The context for our... -
Interpreting the role of pH on stable isotopes in large benthic foraminifera
Large benthic foraminifera (LBF) are prolific producers of calcium carbonate sediments in shallow, tropical environments that are being influenced by ocean acidification (OA).... -
Antarctic crustacean grazer assemblages exhibit resistance following exposure...
Anthropogenic atmospheric CO2 concentrations are increasing rapidly, resulting in declining seawater pH (ocean acidification). The majority of ocean acidification research to... -
Hidden impacts of ocean acidification to live and dead coral framework
Cold-water corals, such as Lophelia pertusa, are key habitat-forming organisms found throughout the world's oceans to 3000 m deep. The complex three-dimensional framework made... -
Physiological response of the cold-water coral Desmophyllum dianthus to therm...
Rising temperatures and ocean acidification driven by anthropogenic carbon emissions threaten both tropical and temperate corals. However, the synergistic effect of these... -
Sea urchins in a high CO2 world: partitioned effects of body-size, ocean warm...
Body-size and temperature are the major factors explaining metabolic rate, and the additional factor of pH is a major driver at the biochemical level. These three factors have... -
9-28 d of exposure to elevated pCO2 reduces avoidance of predator odour but h...
Most studies on the impact of near-future levels of carbon dioxide on fish behaviour report behavioural alterations, wherefore abnormal behaviour has been suggested to be a... -
Increased CO2 modifies the carbon balance and the photosynthetic yield of two...
Ocean acidification affects with special intensity Arctic ecosystems, being marine photosynthetic organisms a primary target, although the consequences of this process in the... -
Altered neurotransmitter function in CO2-exposed stickleback (Gasterosteus ac...
Studies on the consequences of ocean acidification for the marine ecosystem have revealed behavioural changes in coral reef fishes exposed to sustained near-future CO2 levels.... -
Decreased light availability can amplify negative impacts of ocean acidificat...
Coral reef organisms are increasingly and simultaneously affected by global and local stressors such as ocean acidification (OA) and reduced light availability. However,... -
Calcareous green alga Halimeda tolerates ocean acidification conditions at tr...
We investigated ecological, physiological, and skeletal characteristics of the calcifying green alga Halimeda grown at CO2 seeps (pHtotal ~ 7.8) and compared them to those at... -
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... -
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... -
Size matters: plasticity in metabolic scaling shows body-size may modulate re...
Variability in metabolic scaling in animals, the relationship between metabolic rate ( R) and body mass ( M), has been a source of debate and controversy for decades. R is... -
Shotgun proteomics reveals physiological response to ocean acidification in C...
Background. Ocean acidification as a result of increased anthropogenic CO2 emissions is occurring in marine and estuarine environments worldwide. The coastal ocean experiences...
