What meta-analysis can tell us about vulnerability of marine biodiversity to ocean acidification? (2010, background): “For example, echinoderms may appear to be resistant to ocean acidification as adults (e.g.Wood et al., 2008) and juveniles (e.g. Gooding et al., 2009) but be extremely sensitive as larvae (e.g. Dupont et al., 2008) a feature that would compromise species survival in near-future conditions.”
Predicting the impact of ocean acidification on benthic biodiversity: What can animal physiology tell us? (2008, background): “More tantalisingly very recent work by Wood et al. (2008) on echinoderms seems to indicate that metabolic rate may actually increase in acidified water.”
Ocean acidification: the other CO2 problem. (2009, background): “Calcification in the arms of a burrowing brittle star increased when organisms were grown in low pH water (Wood et al. 2008; Figure 4, case b).”
Ecosystem effects of ocean acidification in times of ocean warming: a physiologist’s view (2008, background): “Examples exist where such upregulation of calcification is visible in marine invertebrates (e.g. cephalopod Sepia officinalis, Gutowska et al. 2008, this Theme Section [TS]; infaunal ophiurids, Wood et al. 2008) and even in marine phytoplankton (IglesiasRodriguez et al. 2008).”
Moderate seawater acidification does not elicit long-term metabolic depression in the blue mussel Mytilus edulis (2010, background): “Similar effects of hypercapnia on respiration rates have already been observed for other marine taxa at comparable pCO2 levels, such as an ophiuroid echinoderm and tropical teleost fish species (Wood et al. 2008; Munday et al. 2009; Comeau et al. 2010).”
Energy homeostasis as an integrative tool for assessing limits of environmental stress tolerance in aquatic invertebrates. (2012, background): “In the brittle star Amphiura filiformis the OA-induced increase in calcification rates coincided with an increase in respiration rates and was accompanied by a partial resorption of the arm muscles indicating high-energy demand in OA-exposed organisms (Wood et al., 2008).”
Effects of ocean acidification and high temperatures on the bryozoan Myriapora truncata at natural CO2 vents (2010, background): “The ability of species to increase their calcification rates under acidified conditions may incur increased metabolic costs, compromising their long-term survival as shown for Amphiura filiformis (Wood et al. 2008), Littorina littorea (Bibby et al.”
A horizon scanning assessment of current and potential future threats to migratory shorebirds (2012, background): “In contrast, Amphiura filiformis exhibited the capacity to compensate for acidification by accelerating their metabolism and calcification rates, although these processes are likely to be unsustainable for extended periods of time (Wood et al. 2008).”
Long-term and trans-life-cycle effects of exposure to ocean acidification in the green sea urchin Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis (2013, result): “This is consistent with previous long-term exposures to high pCO2 on adult echinoderm species (40- day exposure on brittle stars, Wood et al. 2008, 2010; Findlay et al. 2011; 49-day exposure on sea urchins, Dashfield et al. 2008, Uthicke et al. submitted; 6-month exposure on sea stars, Hernroth et…”
The Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, shows negative correlation to naturally elevated carbon dioxide levels: Implications for near‐term ocean acidification effects (2012, background): “However, only a handful of studies have addressed the underlying physiological and ecological mechanisms of these responses to develop a clear and well-founded argument for how other related organisms will respond (Wood et al. 2008; Thomsen et al. 2010; Ries 2011).”
Physiological basis for high CO2 tolerance in marine ectothermic animals: pre-adaptation through lifestyle and ontogeny? (2009, background): “…clear that in order to consider possible trade-offs be-tween single parameters all relevant indicators have to be included simultaneously to generate a meaningful assessment of a given species’ vulnerability to future ocean acidiﬁcation (e.g. see below, Wood et al., 2008; Kurihara et al., 2008).”
