Impacts of ocean acidification on marine shelled molluscs (2013, methodology): “Gazeau et al. (2007) and Waldbusser et al. (2010, 2011b) used the alkalinity anomaly technique (Smith and Key 1975) to show signiﬁcant decreases in calciﬁcation rates with decreasing pH levels.”
The Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, shows negative correlation to naturally elevated carbon dioxide levels: Implications for near‐term ocean acidification effects (2012, background): “Studies on adult bivalves have shown that net calcification was possible under more acidified conditions (Gazeau et al. 2007), and the ability to overcome dissolution increased with postlarval size (Waldbusser et al. 2010).”
Climate change and aquaculture: considering adaptation potential (2019, background): “Oyster breeding programmes that have experienced de - clines in survival and yield related to changing ocean conditions (de Melo et al. 2016) are now selecting for increased calcification rates (Waldbusser et al. 2010).”
Oyster Shell Dissolution Rates in Estuarine Waters: Effects of pH and Shell Legacy (2011, background): “Adultandjuvenile bivalveshave been shown to depositcalcium carbonate under corrosive conditions, albeit at a reduced rate (Gazeau et al. 2007, Waldbusser et al. 2010, Waldbusser et al. 2011).”
The Impact of Ocean Acidification on Reproduction, Early Development and Settlement of Marine Organisms (2011, background): “plasticity [117] and focus on identifying the underlying mechanisms [43,44,46,77].”
Reviewing the Effects of Ocean Acidification on Sexual Reproduction and Early Life History Stages of Reef-Building Corals (2011, unknown): “[106] found a size dependent pH effect on calcification in juvenile hard clams (Mercenaria spp.”
Interactive effects of acidification, hypoxia, and thermal stress on growth, respiration, and survival of four North Atlantic bivalves (2018, methodology): “Smaller juvenile bivalves are less capable of resisting dissolution pressure likely due to developmental shifts in shell mineralogy and rapid growth occurring in earlier life stage juveniles (Green et al. 2009, Waldbusser et al. 2010).”
Climate change and aquaculture: considering biological response and resources (2019, background): “…mercenaria found a size-dependent mortality factor, where larger individuals were able to withstand dis- solution through increased rates of calcification (Waldbusser et al. 2010, Talmage & Gobler 2011) or by reaching a size at which corrosive conditions did not affect survival (Green et al. 2009).”
A developmental and energetic basis linking larval oyster shell formation to acidification sensitivity (2013, background): “…stress lowers lipid levels in bivalve larvae as they approach metamorphosis and results in greater failure of settling larvae [Talmage and Gobler, 2010, 2011], while calcification in newly settled juvenile hard clams is more sensitive to acidification than later stages [Waldbusser et al., 2010].”
Adult exposure influences offspring response to ocean acidification in oysters (2012, background): “This demonstrates that there is variation in response to ocean acidification within a population (Waldbusser et al., 2010; Parker et al., 2011).”
