Effects of ocean acidification on the interaction between calcifying oysters (Ostrea chilensis) and bioeroding sponges (Cliona sp.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Ocean acidification can negatively affect a broad range of physiological processes in marine shelled molluscs. Marine bioeroding organisms could, in contrast, benefit from ocean acidification due to reduced energetic costs of bioerosion.

Effect of ocean acidification on growth, gonad development and physiology of the sea urchin Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus

open access: yesAquatic Biology, 2013
Ocean acidification, due to diffusive uptake of atmospheric CO2, has potentially profound ramifications for the entire marine ecosystem. Scientific knowledge on the biological impacts of ocean acidification is rapidly accumulating; however, data are ...

Predicting potential Arctic kelp distribution and lower‐depth biomass from seafloor irradiance

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Kelps have an extensive distribution in Arctic coastal waters. However, quantifying their role in the Arctic food web and carbon cycle is challenged by the scarcity of documented geographical distribution, standing stocks and production. Here we present a framework based on an empirical function to predict the potential kelp distribution and ...

The carbonate pump feedback on alkalinity and the carbon cycle in the 21st century and beyond [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics
Ocean acidification is likely to impact all stages of the ocean carbonate pump, i.e. the production, export, dissolution and burial of biogenic CaCO3. However, the associated feedback on anthropogenic carbon uptake and ocean acidification has received ...

Seagrass can mitigate negative ocean acidification effects on calcifying algae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The ultimate effect that ocean acidification (OA) and warming will have on the physiology of calcifying algae is still largely uncertain. Responses depend on the complex interactions between seawater chemistry, global/local stressors and species-specific

Ocean acidification at the crossroads I: Harmonizing unpurified and purified meta‐cresol purple spectrophotometric pHT measurements based on absorbance data

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Consistent monitoring of seawater spectrophotometric pH on the total hydrogen ion scale (pHT) has been questioned by an evolving method, with changes in parameterization and the purity of the meta‐cresol purple (mCP). Using real seawater samples, we demonstrate that spectrophotometric pHT measurements obtained with unpurified (UNPUR) and ...

Calculating the global contribution of coralline algae to carbon burial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The ongoing increase in anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions is changing the global marine environment and is causing warming and acidification of the oceans.

Sediment trap preservative choice impacts particle‐associated microbial community composition

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding and quantifying the microbial contribution to particulate organic matter (POM) flux and carbon cycling in the ocean relies largely on the collection of sinking POM. A critical aspect of evaluating microbial communities on sediment trap‐collected POM is their preservation until recovery and sample processing.

Coralline algae in a naturally acidified ecosystem persist by maintaining control of skeletal mineralogy and size [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To understand the effects of ocean acidification (OA) on marine calcifiers, the trade-offs among different sublethal responses within individual species and the emergent effects of these trade-offs must be determined in an ecosystem setting.

Chemical stabilization of glass microfiber type F filters for measuring particulate phosphorus using the extra high‐temperature dry combustion method

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Accurate quantification of particulate phosphorus is critical for understanding biogeochemical processes in aquatic systems. Extra high‐temperature dry combustion at 800°C improves phosphorus recovery by ~ 11% compared to lower‐temperature methods.
