Dissolution: the Achilles' heel of the triton shell in an acidifying ocean
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification is expected to negatively impact many calcifying marine organisms by impairing their ability to build their protective shells and skeletons, and by causing dissolution...

Using present-day observations to detect when anthropogenic change forces surface ocean carbonate chemistry outside preindustrial bounds
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
One of the major challenges to assessing the impact of ocean acidification on marine life is detecting and interpreting long-term change in the context of natural variability. This study...

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)...

Ocean acidification in the California Current System
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Eastern boundary upwelling systems (EBUS) are naturally more acidic than most of the rest of the surface ocean. Observations of EBUS already show pH values and saturation states with...

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...

Seasonal patterns in aragonite saturation state on the southern California continental shelf
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Shoaling of the saturation horizon for aragonite in the California Current System has been well-documented; however, these reports are based primarily on surveys conducted in waters off...
