Early development of undulated surf clam, Paphia undulate under elevated pCO2
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
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 future...

Quantifying rates of evolutionary adaptation in response to ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The global acidification of the earth's oceans is predicted to impact biodiversity via physiological effects impacting growth, survival, reproduction, and immunology, leading to changes...

Future herbivory: the indirect effects of enriched CO2 may rival its direct effects
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Variation in rates of herbivory may be driven by direct effects of the abiotic environment on grazers, as well as indirect effects mediated by their food. Disentangling these direct and...

Effects of ocean acidification on the metabolic rates of three species of bivalve from southern coast of China
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Oceanic uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide results in a decrease in seawater pH, a process known as “ocean acidification”. The pearl oyster Pinctada fucata, the noble scallop Chlamys...

Exposure history determines pteropod vulnerability to ocean acidification along the US West Coast
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The pteropod Limacina helicina frequently experiences seasonal exposure to corrosive conditions ($Ømega$ar \textless 1) along the US West Coast and is recognized as one of the species...

Ecological effects of ocean acidification and habitat complexity on reef-associated macroinvertebrate communities
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The ecological effects of ocean acidification (OA) from rising atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) on benthic marine communities are largely unknown. We investigated in situ the consequences...

Ocean acidification increases the vulnerability of native oysters to predation by invasive snails
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
There is growing concern that global environmental change might exacerbate the ecological impacts of invasive species by increasing their per capita effects on native species. However,...

Changes in pteropod distributions and shell dissolution across a frontal system in the California Current System
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
We tested the sensitivity of the vertical distributions and shell dissolution patterns of thecosome pteropods to spatial gradients associated with an eddy-associated front in the southern...

Laboratory simulation reveals significant impacts of ocean acidification on microbial community composition and host-pathogen interactions between the blood clam and Vibrio harveyi
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
It has been suggested that climate change may promote the outbreaks of diseases in the sea through altering the host susceptibility, the pathogen virulence, and the host-pathogen...

Mussel byssus attachment weakened by ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Biomaterials connect organisms to their environments. Their function depends on biological, chemical and environmental factors, both at the time of creation and throughout the life of the...

Tropical CO2 seeps reveal the impact of ocean acidification on coral reef invertebrate recruitment
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations are causing ocean acidification by reducing seawater pH and carbonate saturation levels. Laboratory studies have demonstrated that many larval and...
