Welcome to our new Ocean Acidification series for teachers and students! This expert talk is based on chapter 1 in The Ocean of Tomorrow teachers booklet, created by the New Zealand Marine Studies Centre and can be downloaded in the link below. This short …
Coral islands support and extend legal maritime jurisdictions. University of Sydney researchers have found 25 percent of Australia’s coral islands, land masses formed by reefs, currently face high to very high risk of being wiped out by climate change. The …
The local expression of ocean acidification may depend on local oceanographic features in addition to global forcings. Our objective is to provide a baseline of pH behavior at Santa Catalina Island, situated within the unique oceanographic characteristics …
Highlights Abstract The partial pressure of ocean surface CO2 (pCO2) plays an important role in quantifying the carbon budget and assessing ocean acidification. For such a vast and complex ocean system as the global ocean, most current research practices …
Highlights Abstract We investigate the Palaeocene succession of the Hazara Basin (Northern Pakistan) to better understand the impact of climate change on marine carbonate-producing organisms. These shallow-water carbonates, deposited during the Late …
The Late Cenomanian Plenus Cold Event is one of the most enigmatic paleoclimate episodes in Earth history with potential to inform understanding of global climate system variability under greenhouse warming conditions, as well as internal feedback pathways …
Highlights Abstract Climate change is acidifying and warming our oceans, at an unprecedented rate posing a challenge for marine invertebrates vital across the globe for ecological services and food security. Here we show it is possible for resilience to …
Highlights Abstract Ocean warming (OW) and ocean acidification (OA), driven by rapid global warming accelerating at unprecedented rates, are profoundly impacting the stability of seagrass ecosystems. Yet, our current understanding of the effects of OW and …
Highlights Abstract The bio-physical responses of low-lying coral islands to climate change are of concern. These islands exist across a broad range of bio-physical conditions, and vulnerabilities to rising and warming seas, ocean acidification and …
We assessed the responses of solitary cells of Arctic Phaeocystis pouchetii grown under a matrix of temperature (2°C vs. 6°C), light intensity (55 vs. 160 μmol photons m−2 s−1) and pCO2 (400 vs. 1000 μatm CO2, i.e., 40.5 vs. 101.3 Pa). Next to acclimation …
Establishing a proper connection between content and context is essential to infusing Systems Thinking (ST) into sustainable chemistry learning. Several efforts have been made to realize ST in chemistry in the context of coping with climate change through …

Interactive effects of multiple antibiotic residues and ocean acidification on physiology and metabolome of the bay scallops Argopecten irradians irradians Published 18 December 2023 Science Leave a Comment Tags: biological response, laboratory, molecular …
Decade-long ocean warming that impacts ocean circulation, a decrease in oxygen levels that contributes to changes in salinification and nutrient supply, and ocean acidification are just some of the challenges the world’s oceans are facing. In 1988, a …
Evaluating the effects of climate change and chemical, physical and biological stressors on nearshore coral reefs: a case study in the Great Barrier Reef, Australia Published 15 December 2023 Science Leave a Comment Tags: biological response, …
