An aposymbiotic primary coral polyp counteracts acidification by active pH regulation
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Corals build their skeletons using extracellular calcifying fluid located in the tissue-skeleton interface. However, the mechanism by which corals control the transport of calcium and...

Different calcification responses of two hermatypic corals to CO2-driven ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Understanding how calcification is influenced by the enhanced dissolution of CO2 in the oceans is the key to evaluating the effects of ocean acidification (OA) on coral reefs. In this...

Ocean warming and acidification have complex interactive effects on the dynamics of a marine fungal disease
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Diseases threaten the structure and function of marine ecosystems and are contributing to the global decline of coral reefs. We currently lack an understanding of how climate change...

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...
