Effect of carbonate chemistry alteration on the early embryonic development of the pacific pyster (Crassostrea gigas) [PDF]

, 2011
Ocean acidification, due to anthropogenic CO(2) absorption by the ocean, may have profound impacts on marine biota. Calcareous organisms are expected to be particularly sensitive due to the decreasing availability of carbonate ions driven by decreasing ...

Shellfish face uncertain future in high CO2 world: influence of acidification on oyster larvae calcification and growth in estuaries. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND: Human activities have increased atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide by 36% during the past 200 years. One third of all anthropogenic CO(2) has been absorbed by the oceans, reducing pH by about 0.1 of a unit and significantly altering
