Impact of ocean acidification on phytoplankton assemblage, growth, and DMS production following Fe-dust additions in the NE Pacific high-nutrient, low-chlorophyll waters
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification (OA) is likely to have an effect on the fertilizing potential of desert dust in high-nutrient, low-chlorophyll oceanic regions, either by modifying iron (Fe)...

Publications
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...

Interactive network configuration maintains bacterioplankton community structure under elevated CO2 in a eutrophic coastal mesocosm experiment
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
There is increasing concern about the effects of ocean acidification on marine biogeochemical and ecological processes and the organisms that drive them, including marine bacteria. Here,...

Shift from coral to macroalgae dominance on a volcanically acidified reef
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Rising anthropogenic CO2 in the atmosphere is accompanied by an increase in oceanic CO2 and a concomitant decline in seawater pH (ref. 1). This phenomenon, known as ocean acidification...

Acidification alters the composition of ammonia‑oxidizing microbial assemblages in marine mesocosms
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations are causing decreased pH over vast expanses of the ocean. This decreasing pH may alter biogeochemical cycling of carbon and nitrogen via the...

Interactive effects of temperature, CO2 and nitrogen source on a coastal California diatom assemblage
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Diatoms are often considered to be a single functional group, yet there is a great deal of morphological, genetic and ecological diversity within the class. How these differences will...
