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...

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...

Resiliency of juvenile walleye pollock to projected levels of ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
As atmospheric concentrations of CO2 rise, the pH of high-latitude oceans is predicted to decrease by 0.3 to 0.5 units by 2100. Several biological consequences of ocean acidification...

Host and symbionts in Pocillopora damicornis larvae display different transcriptomic responses to ocean acidification and warming
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
As global ocean change progresses, reef-building corals and their early life history stages will rely on physiological plasticity to tolerate new environmental conditions. Larvae from...

Publications
Maximum thermal limits of coral reef damselfishes are size dependent and resilient to near-future ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Theoretical models predict that ocean acidification, caused by increased dissolved CO2, will reduce the maximum thermal limits of fishes, thereby increasing their vulnerability to rising...

Intraspecific variability in the response of the edible mussel Mytilus chilensis (hupe) to ocean acidification
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification (OA) has been shown to affect significantly the net calcification process and growth rate of many marine calcifying organisms. Recent studies have shown that the...

Elevated pCO2 alters marine heterotrophic bacterial community composition and metabolic potential in response to a pulse of phytoplankton organic matter
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Factors that affect the respiration of organic carbon by marine bacteria can alter the extent to which the oceans act as a sink of atmospheric carbon dioxide. We designed seawater...

CO2-driven decrease in pH disrupts olfactory behaviour and increases individual variation in deep-sea hermit crabs
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Deep-sea species are generally thought to be less tolerant of environmental variation than shallow-living species due to the relatively stable conditions in deep waters for most...

Physiological response to elevated temperature and pCO2 varies across four Pacific coral species: Understanding the unique host+symbiont response
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The physiological response to individual and combined stressors of elevated temperature and pCO2 were measured over a 24-day period in four Pacific corals and their respective symbionts...
