Organic eutrophication increases resistance of the pulsating soft coral Xenia umbellata to warming [PDF]
Recent research indicates that hard corals in a process that is termed phase shift are often replaced by soft corals in reefs. The simultaneous occurrence of local (i.e.

Southern Ocean pteropods at risk from ocean warming and acidification [PDF]
Early life stages of marine calcifiers are particularly vulnerable to climate change. In the Southern Ocean aragonite undersaturation events and areas of rapid warming already occur and are predicted to increase in extent. Here, we present the first study to successfully hatch the polar pteropod Limacina helicina antarctica and observe the potential ...

Projected response of the Indian Ocean Dipole to greenhouse warming
Natural modes of variability centred in the tropics, such as the El Nino/Southern Oscillation and the Indian Ocean Dipole, are a significant source of interannual climate variability across the globe.

Of the additional energy absorbed by the Earth over the past decades, by far the largest fraction is taken up by the oceans. Yet most attribution studies focus on the surface warming, and only few have used patterns of ocean warming to attribute changes ...

Quantifying the feedback between Antarctic meltwater release and subsurface Southern Ocean warming [PDF]
The subsurface ocean around Antarctica is one of the primary drivers of mass loss from the Antarctic ice sheet through the basal melting of ice shelves.

The oceans are changing: impact of ocean warming and acidification on biofouling communities [PDF]
Climate change (CC) is driving modification of the chemical and physical properties of estuaries and oceans with profound consequences for species and ecosystems. Numerous studies investigate CC effects from species to ecosystem levels, but little is known of the impacts on biofilm communities and on bioactive molecules such as cues, adhesives and ...

Escape of methane gas from the seabed along the West Spitsbergen continental margin [PDF]
More than 250 plumes of gas bubbles have been discovered emanating from the seabed of the West Spitsbergen continental margin, in a depth range of 150-400 m, at and above the present upper limit of the gas hydrate stability zone (GHSZ).

Climate change and ocean acidification impacts on lower trophic levels and the export of organic carbon to the deep ocean [PDF]
Most future projections forecast significant and ongoing climate change during the 21st century, but with the severity of impacts dependent on efforts to restrain or reorganise human activity to limit carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions.
