Bioerosion: the other ocean acidification problem [PDF]

ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2017
Bioerosion of calcium carbonate is the natural counterpart of biogenic calcification. Both are affected by ocean acidification (OA). We summarize definitions and concepts in bioerosion research and knowledge in the context of OA, providing case examples and meta-analyses.

3d Visualization of Bioerosion in Archaeological Bone [PDF]

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2022
Palaeoradiology is increasingly being used in archaeological and forensic sciences as a minimally invasive alternative to traditional histological methods for investigating bone microanatomy and its destruction by diagenetic processes. To better understand ancient mortuary practices, taphonomic studies using microCT scanning methods are gaining an ever

Corals and Reef-Dwelling Fish Regulate Carbon Storage and Cycling Processes in Coral Reef Ecosystems. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Coral reefs are biodiversity hotspots, yet their role in carbon storage and cycling remains poorly understood. Using field surveys and modeling in the South China Sea, we reveal the overlooked potential of carbon storage in reef ecosystems and how reef fish, corals, and surface sediment jointly shape reef carbon reservoirs.

Hidden Fungal Diversity of the Precious Mediterranean Red Coral Corallium rubrum. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
This study reveals diverse cultivable fungi associated with the red coral Corallium rubrum, highlighting both potentially beneficial and pathogenic species. These findings emphasize the biotechnological relevance and ecological impact of coral‐associated fungi, especially as climate change may increase disease risks.

Ocean acidification influences the gene expression and physiology of two Caribbean bioeroding sponges

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionCoral reef ecosystems are experiencing increased rates of carbonate dissolution due to losses in live coral cover coupled with the impacts of ocean acidification (OA) on coral reef calcifiers and bioeroders. While the stimulating effect of OA

Long-term macrobioerosion in the Mediterranean Sea assessed by micro-computed tomography [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2016
Biological erosion is a key process for the recycling of carbonate and the formation of calcareous sediments in the oceans. Experimental studies showed that bioerosion is subject to distinct temporal variability, but previous long-term studies were ...

Bioerosion of reef-building crustose coralline algae by endolithic invertebrates in an upwelling-influenced reef

, 2021
Coral reef growth is primarily determined by constructive and bioerosive processes acting on key reef-building organisms. Among them, corals are major contributors to the construction of reef frameworks, while crustose coralline algae (CCA) primarily ...

Seawater carbonate chemistry and the bioerosion rates of two reef-dwelling Caribbean sponges

, 2022
Ocean acidification (OA) is expected to modify the structure and function of coral reef ecosystems by reducing calcification, increasing bioerosion, and altering the physiology of many marine organisms. Much of our understanding of these relationships is

Effects of water depth, seasonal exposure, and substrate orientation on microbial bioerosion in the Ionian Sea (Eastern Mediterranean).

PLoS ONE, 2015
The effects of water depth, seasonal exposure, and substrate orientation on microbioerosion were studied by means of a settlement experiment deployed in 15, 50, 100, and 250 m water depth south-west of the Peloponnese Peninsula (Greece).

Effects of ocean acidification and global warming on reef bioerosion—lessons from a clionaid sponge

Aquatic Biology, 2013
Coral reefs are under threat, exerted by a number of interacting effects inherent to the present climate change, including ocean acidification and global warming.
