Ocean acidification causes bleaching and productivity loss in coral reef builders
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Ocean acidification represents a key threat to coral reefs by reducing the calcification rate of the major reef framework builders. In addition, acidification is likely to affect the...

Complex and interactive effects of ocean acidification and temperature on epilithic and endolithic coral-reef turf algal assemblages
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
Turf algal assemblages are ubiquitous primary producers on coral reefs, but little is known about the response of this diverse group to ocean acidification (OA) across different...

Warmer more acidic conditions cause decreased productivity and calcification in subtropical coral reef sediment-dwelling calcifiers
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The effects of elevated CO2 and temperature on photosynthesis and calcification in the calcifying algae Halimeda macroloba and Halimeda cylindracea and the symbiont-bearing benthic...

Boosted nutritional quality of food by CO2 enrichment fails to offset energy demand of herbivores under ocean warming, causing energy depletion and mortality
International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Publications
The CO2-boosted trophic transfer from primary producers to herbivores has been increasingly discovered at natural CO2 vents and in laboratory experiments. Despite the emerging knowledge...

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...
