Permeable coral reef sediment dissolution driven by elevated CO2 and porewater advection
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification (OA) is expected to drive the transition of coral reef ecosystems from net calcium carbonate (CaCO3) precipitating to net dissolving within the next century. Although...

The status of the coral reefs of Tuvalu
Tuvalu Environment Data Portal Publications
Tuvalu's shallow marine environments are dominantly fringing and patch reefs. Five of the islands are true coral atolls, with a continuous eroded reef platform surrounding a central...

Galápagos coral reef persistence after ENSO warming across an acidification gradient
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Anthropogenic CO2 is causing warming and ocean acidification. Coral reefs are being severely impacted, yet confusion lingers regarding how reefs will respond to these stressors over this...

CO32- concentration and pCO2 thresholds for calcification and dissolution on the Molokai reef flat, Hawaii
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The severity of the impact of elevated atmospheric pCO2 to coral reef ecosystems depends, in part, on how seawater pCO2 affects the balance between calcification and dissolution of...

Ocean acidification causes bleaching and productivity loss in coral reef builders
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification represents a key threat to coral reefs by reducing the calcification rate of the major reef framework builders. In addition, acidification is likely to affect the...

Whole transcriptome analysis of the coral Acropora millepora reveals complex responses to CO2-driven acidification during the initiation of calcification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The impact of ocean acidification (OA) on coral calcification, a subject of intense current interest, is poorly understood in part because of the presence of symbionts in adult corals....

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...
