• Meta-analysis reveals negative yet variable effects of ocean acidification on marine organisms. (2010, background): “Although not included in our analyses, increased temperatures both increased and decreased the severity of the effect size of ocean acidification (Reynaud et al. 2003, 2004; Hare et al. 2007; Anthony et al. 2008; Findlay et al. 2008; Byrne et al. 2009; Martin & Gattuso 2009; Munday et al. 2009).”

• Warmer more acidic conditions cause decreased productivity and calcification in subtropical coral reef sediment‐dwelling calcifiers (2011, background): “Acidification has been shown to reduce calcification, recruitment, growth, and productivity in the articulated coralline alga Corallina pilulifera Postels and Ruprecht as well as in crustose coralline algae (CCA) when exposed to elevated pCO2 (partial pressure of CO2) seawater (Kuffner et al. 2007; ”
