Bioerosion: the other ocean acidification problem: Towards a Broader Perspective on Ocean Acidification Research Part 2 A special issue of the ICES Journal of Marine Science (2017, background): “Organismically exerted chemical bioerosion is thus distinct from passive chemical dissolution via natural or anthropogenic undersaturation or acidification of the ambient water (e.g. Waldbusser et al., 2011; Andersson and Gledhill, 2013; van Woesik et al., 2013; Reyes-Nivia et al., 2014).”
Impacts of ocean acidification on marine shelled molluscs (2013, methodology): “In contrast, Waldbusser et al. (2011a) observed mass loss of Eastern oyster empty shells even under non-corrosive conditions, a process attributed to the presence of microbes on the shells and the secondary effects of metabolic CO 2 production.”
Linking the biological impacts of ocean acidification on oysters to changes in ecosystem services: A review (2017, background): “…et al., 2009; Waldbusser et al., 239 2011b; Wright et al., 2014), decreased shell density, weight, and strength 240 (Bamber, 1990; Welladsen et al., 2010), increased shell dissolution 241 (Waldbusser et al., 2011a), and increased mortality (Beniash et al., 2010; Dove 242 and Sammut, 2007).”
