Size-dependent pH effect on calcification in post-larval hard clam Mercenaria spp. (2010, background): “Importantly, pH may affect physiological processes other than shell production (Pörtner 2008, Pörtner et al. 2004); therefore, the effects of pH on calcification may be directly related to the mineralization of shell or indirectly to overall physiology.”
Appropriate pCO2 treatments in ocean acidification experiments (2013, background): “It is critical to recognize that organisms may respond to other carbon system parameters, such as pH or calcium carbonate saturation state (Pörtner 2008), which also vary by ecoregion, adding to complexity of identifying appropriate conditions for experimental baselines.”
Effects of ocean acidification and elevated temperature on shell plasticity and its energetic basis in an intertidal gastropod (2013, methodology): “…for the first time, we formally test if energy limitations (i.e. ATP levels) previously reported for this species when exposed to elevated temperature and pCO2 (Melatunan et al. 2011) are associated with plasticity in shell morphology (as predicted by Pörtner 2008 and Findlay et al. 2009, 2011).”
Impact of CO 2 -driven ocean acidification on invertebrates early life-history - What we know, what we need to know and what we can do (2009, background): “Tipping points vary among species and we need to study the mechanisms of physiological response to understand these differences (Pörtner, 2008).”
Marine animal behaviour in a high CO2 ocean (2015, background): “Most OA studies have focused primarily on physiology (e.g. Pörtner et al. 2004, Pörtner 2008), calcification (e.g. Ries et al. 2009), and fitness and survivorship (e.g. Kurihara 2008) of larval and juvenile animals.”
Oxygen- and capacity-limitation of thermal tolerance: a matrix for integrating climate-related stressor effects in marine ecosystems (2010, background): “Available knowledge suggests unifying physiological principles of CO2 effects, across animal groups and phyla (Pörtner et al., 2004; Pörtner et al., 2005a; Pörtner, 2008).”
Effects of ocean acidification and warming on the larval development of the spider crab Hyas araneus from different latitudes (54° vs. 79° N) (2010, background): “The associated ocean acidification leads to questions about its effect on marine ecosystems in times of ocean warming (cf. Pörtner et al. 2005, Pörtner 2008).”
Response of sea urchin pluteus larvae (Echinodermata: Echinoidea) to reduced seawater pH: a comparison among a tropical, temperate, and a polar species (2009, background): “As osmo-conformers they have a low capacity for ionic regulation, which means they have a lesser ability to acid–base regulate through the process of ionic exchange used by many aquatic organisms (Pörtner 2008).”
High-Frequency Dynamics of Ocean pH: A Multi-Ecosystem Comparison (2011, background): “Specifically, laboratory experiments to test tolerances are often not designed to encompass the actual habitat exposure of the organisms under study, a critical design criterion in organismal physiology that also applies to global change biology [27–29].”
Integrating climate-related stressor effects on marine organisms: unifying principles linking molecule to ecosystem-level changes (2012, background): “CO2 effects on physiological processes like calcification (cf. Pörtner 2008) will likely also become involved under any condition causing CO2 to accumulate internally in the organism.”
Calcification, a physiological process to be considered in the context of the whole organism (2009, background): “Perhaps more importantly it demonstrates that there is a great degree of biological control on dissolution with complex links to other physiological processes (e.g. Pörtner, 2008).”
Physiological and ecological responses of crustaceans to ocean acidification (2011, positive): “…climate change scenarios, these studies are invaluable because they provide a mechanistic basis for understanding differences in the sensitivity of marine invertebrate taxa to ocean acidification (Fabry et al. 2008, Pörtner 2008, Widdicombe & Spicer 2008, Melzner et al. 2009, Hale et al. 2011).”
