Internal pH regulation facilitates in situ long-term acclimation of massive corals to end-of-century carbon dioxide conditions.
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The resilience of tropical corals to ocean acidification depends on their ability to regulate the pH within their calcifying fluid (pHcf). Recent work suggests pHcf homeostasis under...

Coral calcifying fluid pH dictates response to ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification driven by rising levels of CO2 impairs calcification, threatening coral reef growth. Predicting how corals respond to CO2 requires a better understanding of how...

Projected changes to growth and mortality of Hawaiian corals over the next 100 years
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Background Recent reviews suggest that the warming and acidification of ocean surface waters predicated by most accepted climate projections will lead to mass mortality and declining...

Warmer more acidic conditions cause decreased productivity and calcification in subtropical coral reef sediment-dwelling calcifiers
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The effects of elevated CO2 and temperature on photosynthesis and calcification in the calcifying algae Halimeda macroloba and Halimeda cylindracea and the symbiont-bearing benthic...

Impacts of ocean acidification on multiplication and caste organisation of parasitic trematodes in their gastropod host
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification is predicted to impact the structure and function of all marine ecosystems in this century. As focus turns towards possible impacts on interactions among marine...

Physiological response to elevated temperature and pCO2 varies across four Pacific coral species: Understanding the unique host+symbiont response
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The physiological response to individual and combined stressors of elevated temperature and pCO2 were measured over a 24-day period in four Pacific corals and their respective symbionts...

Exploring the “Sharkcano”: biogeochemical observations of the Kavachi submarine volcano (Solomon Islands)
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
An expedition to the Kavachi submarine volcano (Solomon Islands) in January 2015 was serendipitously timed with a rare lull in volcanic activity that permitted access to the inside of...

Potential future coral habitats around Japan depend strongly on anthropogenic CO2 emissions
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Using the results from the NCAR CSM1.4-coupled global carbon cycle–climate model under the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) emission scenarios SRES A2 and B1, we estimated...

CO2-driven ocean acidification reduces larval feeding efficiency and change food selectivity in the mollusk Concholepas concholepas
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
We present experimental data obtained from an experiment with newly hatched veliger larvae of the gastropod Concholepas concholepas exposed to three pCO2 levels. Egg capsules were...

Elevated seawater CO2 concentrations impair larval development and reduce larval survival in endangered northern abalone (Haliotis kamtschatkana)
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Increasing levels of anthropogenic carbon dioxide in the world's oceans are resulting in a decrease in the availability of carbonate ions and a drop in seawater pH. This process, known as...

Laboratory simulation reveals significant impacts of ocean acidification on microbial community composition and host-pathogen interactions between the blood clam and Vibrio harveyi
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
It has been suggested that climate change may promote the outbreaks of diseases in the sea through altering the host susceptibility, the pathogen virulence, and the host-pathogen...

Persistence of positive carryover effects in the oyster, Saccostrea glomerata, following transgenerational exposure to ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification (OA) is predicted to have widespread implications for marine organisms, yet the capacity for species to acclimate or adapt over this century remains unknown. Recent...
