Predictions concerning the consequences of the oceanic uptake of increasing atmospheric
carbon dioxide (CO2) have been primarily occupied with the effects of ocean acidification on …

Bioerosion of calcium carbonate is the natural counterpart of biogenic calcification. Both are
affected by ocean acidification (OA). We summarize definitions and concepts in bioerosion …

This Report responds to the invitation for IPCC?... to provide a Special Report in 2018 on the
impacts of global warming of 1.5° C above pre-industrial levels and related global …

Approximately one-quarter of the anthropogenic carbon dioxide released into the
atmosphere each year is absorbed by the global oceans, causing measurable declines in …

Coral reefs feed millions of people worldwide, provide coastal protection and generate
billions of dollars annually in tourism revenue. The underlying architecture of a reef is a …

The objective of this study was to investigate whether a tipping point exists in the
calcification responses of coral reef calcifiers to CO2. We compared the effects of six partial …

Performance of autonomous pH sensors is evaluated by comparing in situ data to
independent bench-top measurements of pH and to co-located pH, O 2, and p CO 2 …

Increasing atmospheric partial pressure of CO2 (p CO2) is a major threat to coral reefs, but
some argue that the threat is mitigated by factors such as the variability in the response of …

In corals, biocalcification is a major function that may be drastically affected by ocean
acidification (OA). Scleractinian corals grow by building up aragonitic exoskeletons that …

Coral reefs are deteriorating under climate change as oceans continue to warm and acidify
and thermal anomalies grow in frequency and intensity. In vitro experiments are widely used …
