Ocean acidification and warming decrease calcification in the crustose coralline alga Hydrolithon onkodes and increase susceptibility to grazing (2012, background): “, 2009), and although some organisms benefit from the changes in carbonate chemistry, the majority of coral reef organisms have shown negative responses to ocean acidification (Fabricius et al., 2011; Pandolfi et al., 2011).”
Conserving potential coral reef refuges at high latitudes (2014, background): “Climate change will pose multidimensional complex threats to coral reefs (Pandolfi et al., 2011), including: (1) higher mean, and more variable temperature, altering physi-”
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): “…calcifiers in concert with eutrophication may lead to shifts from positive carbonate budgets to erosional states, which triggered additional concern about how OA may contribute to changes of bioeroder abundances and bioerosion rates in comparison to biogenic calcification (Pandolfi et al., 2011).”
Adaptation and the physiology of ocean acidification (2013, neutral): “eral of the most rapid increases in CO2 and temperature in the earth’s history were associated with mass extinctions in the oceans (Pandolfi et al. 2011).”
Climate-change induced tropicalisation of marine communities in Western Australia (2012, background): “For example, it is suggested that some level of adaptation to increased temperature may largely reduce the impacts of coral bleaching caused by ocean warming on coral reefs (Donner 2009; Pandolfi et al. 2011).”
Blind to morphology: genetics identifies several widespread ecologically common species and few endemics among Indo‐Pacific cauliflower corals (Pocillopora, Scleractinia) (2013, background): “The global decline of reef-building corals resulting from anthropogenic impacts at local and global scales has made it increasingly urgent to obtain accurate data on the ecological responses of coral populations to these stressors (Pandolfi et al., 2011).”
Interactive effects of ocean acidification and temperature on two scleractinian corals from Moorea, French Polynesia (2012, background): “A more com- prehensive evaluation of such genetic variation might allow the development of genus-level modeling of the effects of OA on corals, rather than the order-level analyses that dominate contemporary literature (Erez et al., 2011, but see Pandolfi et al., 2011).”
Symbiodinium Functional Diversity in the Coral Siderastrea siderea Is Influenced by Thermal Stress and Reef Environment, but Not Ocean Acidification (2018, background): “Bleaching events have been recognized as the primary driver of recent global coral reef degradation and have been increasing in frequency and severity over the past century (Pandolfi et al., 2011; Hughes et al., 2017).”
How does climate change cause extinction? (2013, neutral): “The link between anthropogenic climate change and local extinction of coral populations through bleaching also remains speculative [79].”
Zooplanktivory ameliorates the effects of ocean acidification on the reef coral Porites spp (2011, background): “Although such dire projections may be overly pessimistic (Pandolfi et al. 2011), nevertheless, most empirical research reveals a strongly negative effect on scleractinian calcification of depressed Varag (which is relevant to aragonite-depositing corals), with calcification declining 5–40% for each…”
