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...

Elevated CO2 does not exacerbate nutritional stress in larvae of a Pacific flatfish
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Multiple aspects of climate change are expected to co-occur such that ocean acidification will take place in conjunction with warming and a range of trophic changes. Previous studies have...

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...

Galápagos coral reef persistence after ENSO warming across an acidification gradient
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Anthropogenic CO2 is causing warming and ocean acidification. Coral reefs are being severely impacted, yet confusion lingers regarding how reefs will respond to these stressors over this...

Carbon cycling hysteresis in permeable carbonate sands over a diel cycle: implications for ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Dissolved inorganic carbon, dissolved oxygen, H+, and alkalinity fluxes from permeable carbonate sediments at Heron Island (Great Barrier Reef) were measured over one diel cycle using...

Greenhouse conditions induce mineralogical changes and dolomite accumulation in coralline algae on tropical reefs
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Human-induced ocean acidification and warming alter seawater carbonate chemistry reducing the calcification of reef-building crustose coralline algae (CCA), which has implications for...

Coral calcifying fluid pH dictates response to ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification driven by rising levels of CO2 impairs calcification, threatening coral reef growth. Predicting how corals respond to CO2 requires a better understanding of how...

The sounds of silence: regime shifts impoverish marine soundscapes
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Context Regime shifts are well known for driving penetrating ecological change, yet we do not recognise the consequences of these shifts much beyond species diversity and productivity....

Publications
Ocean acidification and kelp development: Reduced pH has no negative effects on meiospore germination and gametophyte development of Macrocystis pyrifera and Undaria pinnatifida
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The absorption of anthropogenic CO2 by the oceans is causing a reduction in the pH of the surface waters termed ocean acidification (OA). This could have substantial effects on marine...

The influence of Pacific Equatorial Water on fish diversity in the southern California Current System
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The California Undercurrent transports Pacific Equatorial Water (PEW) into the Southern California Bight from the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean. PEW is characterized by higher...

Photoperiod mediates the effects of elevated CO2 on the growth and physiological performance in the green tide alga Ulva prolifera
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ulva spp., an increasingly important food, are the dominant species of the large-scale green tides. In this study, both the growth and the physiological responses of the Ulva prolifera...
