Not all sponges will thrive in a high-CO2 ocean: review of the mineralogy of calcifying sponges
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Most marine sponges precipitate silicate skeletal elements, and it has been predicted that they would be among the few “winners” among invertebrates in an acidifying, high-CO2 ocean. But...

Effects of ocean acidification and global warming on reef bioerosion—lessons from a clionaid sponge
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Coral reefs are under threat, exerted by a number of interacting effects inherent to the present climate change, including ocean acidification and global warming. Bioerosion drives reef...

Sponge bioerosion on changing reefs: ocean warming poses physiological constraints to the success of a photosymbiotic excavating sponge
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Excavating sponges are prominent bioeroders on coral reefs that in comparison to other benthic organisms may suffer less or may even benefit from warmer, more acidic and more eutrophic...

Disrupting the effects of synergies between stressors: improved water quality dampens the effects of future CO2 on a marine habitat
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Summary Synergies among stressors drive unanticipated changes to alternative states, yet little has been done to assess whether alleviating one or more contributing stressors may disrupt...

Effect of marine acidification on calcification and respiration of Chlamys farreri
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Marine acidification will be an important environmental problem in the near future as a result of persistent emissions of CO2 and dissolution into seawater. In this study, we found that...

Morphology and classification of hemocytes in Pinctada fucata and their responses to ocean acidification and warming
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Hemocytes play important roles in the innate immune response and biomineralization of bivalve mollusks. However, the hemocytes in pearl oysters are poorly understood. In the present...

Variable responses of temperate calcified and fleshy macroalgae to elevated CO2 and warming
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions simultaneously increase ocean temperatures and reduce ocean surface pH, a process termed ocean acidification (OA). OA is expected to...
