Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) sediment dissolution under elevated concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrate (NO3−)
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification (OA), attributed to the sequestration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) into the surface ocean, and coastal eutrophication, attributed in part to land-use change and...

Publications
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...

Effects of ocean acidification and global warming on reef bioerosion—lessons from a clionaid sponge
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Coral reefs are under threat, exerted by a number of interacting effects inherent to the present climate change, including ocean acidification and global warming. Bioerosion drives reef...

Net loss of CaCO3 from a subtropical calcifying community due to seawater acidification: mesocosm-scale experimental evidence
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Acidification of seawater owing to oceanic uptake of atmospheric CO2 originating from human activities such as burning of fossil fuels and land-use changes has raised serious concerns...

Publications
Water flow modulates the response of coral reef communities to ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
By the end of the century coral reefs likely will be affected negatively by ocean acidification (OA), but both the effects of OA on coral communities and the crossed effects of OA with...

Publications
Contrasting effects of ocean acidification on tropical fleshy and calcareous algae
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Despite the heightened awareness of ocean acidification (OA) effects on marine organisms, few studies empirically juxtapose biological responses to CO2 manipulations across functionally...

Publications
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...
