Insights from sodium into the impacts of elevated pCO2 and temperature on bivalve shell formation
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publication
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...

Early development of undulated surf clam, Paphia undulate under elevated pCO2
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publication
Increasing atmospheric CO2 can decrease the seawater pH and carbonate ions, which may adversely affect the larval survival of calcareous animals. In this study, we simulated...

Potential future coral habitats around Japan depend strongly on anthropogenic CO2 emissions
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publication
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...

Narratives can motivate environmental action: the Whiskey Creek ocean acidification story
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publication
Even when environmental data quantify the risks and benefits of delayed responses to rapid anthropogenic change, institutions rarely respond promptly. We propose that narratives...

Isolation of high-level-CO2-preferring Picochlorum sp. strains and their biotechnological potential
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publication
Production of CO2-tolerant microalgae have received much attention as well as physicochemical fixation of CO2 in industrial flue gas. Although many microalgae that are tolerant...
