Adaptation and the physiology of ocean acidification (2013, unknown): “For example, there is a strong synergistic effect of elevated CO2 and UV radiation on photosynthesis and calcification in coralline algae, but this is probably due to the loss of the calcified layer with decreased pH, increasing sensitivity to UV radiation (Gao & Zheng 2010).”
Calcification of the Arctic coralline red algae Lithothamnion glaciale in response to elevated CO2 (2011, background): “Furthermore, calcification was hypothesized to liberate CO2 for photosynthesis (Borowitzka 1982) and the thickness of the CaCO3 layer in the cell walls was suggested to be relevant for the protection of the photosystem from ultraviolet radiation (Gao & Zheng 2010).”
Ocean acidification effects on calcifying macroalgae (2014, background): “Gao & Zheng (2010) found that UV exposure amplified the negative effects of CO2 on growth, photosynthesis and calcification in the coralline alga Corallina sessilis.”
Solar Ultraviolet Radiation in a Changing Climate (2014, unknown): “2), such as the increased uptake of CO 2 by the oceans that has increased the acidity of the upper water layers and reduced the available carbonate used by corals, plank-ton and some algae to form UV-protective calcifications 56 .”
Diversity of carbon use strategies in a kelp forest community: implications for a high CO2 ocean (2011, background): “Calcareous coralline species that dominate rocky reef systems may be strongly impacted by elevated CO2 (Anthony et al., 2008; Hall-Spencer et al., 2008; Jokiel et al., 2008; Wootton et al., 2008; Gao & Zheng, 2009) particularly in colder seas where carbonate saturation states will be lower.”
Reviews and syntheses: Calculating the global contribution of coralline algae to total carbon burial (2015, unknown): “…growth (Jokiel et al., 2008; Hofmann et al., 2012; Ragazzola et al., 2012), recruit- ment (Kuffner et al., 2008), calcification (Anthony et al., 2008; Gao and Zheng, 2010), size and abundance (Kuffner et al., 2008; Hall-Spencer et al., 2008; Porzio et al., 2011; Kroeker et al., 2013; McCoy and…”
Warmer more acidic conditions cause decreased productivity and calcification in subtropical coral reef sediment‐dwelling calcifiers (2011, background): “…light), this upper limit of survival may be an overestimate (i.e., the upper limit of survival may be below 32uC and 101 Pa pCO2); Gao and Zheng (2010) showed that photosynthesis and calcification are dramatically reduced under high irradiance in combination with elevated CO2…”
