Insights from sodium into the impacts of elevated pCO2 and temperature on bivalve shell formation
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification and warming are predicted to affect the ability of marine bivalves to build their shells, but little is known about the underlying mechanisms. Shell formation is an...

Ocean acidification and pathogen exposure modulate the immune response of the edible mussel Mytilus chilensis
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification (OA) is one of the main consequences of increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), impacting key biological processes of marine organisms such as development, growth...

Technical Note: Maximising accuracy and minimising cost of a potentiometrically regulated ocean acidification simulation system
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
This article describes a potentiometric ocean acidification simulation system which automatically regulates pH through the injection of 100% CO2 gas into temperature-controlled seawater....

Boosted nutritional quality of food by CO2 enrichment fails to offset energy demand of herbivores under ocean warming, causing energy depletion and mortality
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The CO2-boosted trophic transfer from primary producers to herbivores has been increasingly discovered at natural CO2 vents and in laboratory experiments. Despite the emerging knowledge...

Effect of pH and temperature on antioxidant responses of the thick shell mussel Mytilus coruscus
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
This study evaluated the combined effects of seawater pH decrease and temperature increase on the activity of antioxidant enzymes in the thick shell mussel Mytilus coruscus, an ecological...

Combined effects of short-term exposure to elevated CO2 and decreased O2 on the physiology and energy budget of the thick shell mussel Mytilus coruscus
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Hypoxia and ocean acidification are two consequences of anthropogenic activities. These global trends occur on top of natural variability. In environments such as estuarine areas, short-...

Synergistic effects of climate-related variables suggest future physiological impairment in a top oceanic predator
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
By the end of this century, anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are expected to decrease the surface ocean pH by as much as 0.3 unit. At the same time, the ocean is expected to...
