Fertilization in a suite of coastal marine invertebrates from SE Australia is robust to near-future ocean warming and acidification (2010, background): “Adult acclimatization influences the thermotolerance of development ( Bingham et al. 1997; O’Conner and Mulley 1977; Byrne et al. 2010b) and our control temperatures reflect the SSTs experienced for the month prior to collection.”
Biomass, diversity and production of rocky shore macroalgae at two nutrient enrichment and wave action levels (2010, background): “Björk et al. (2004) have, for example, shown that Ulva lactuca and Ulva intestinalis preferentially use bicarbonate as a carbon source and that U. intestinalis in particular by this action increases the pH of rockpools, which makes the environment unsuitable for other seaweeds (e.g. Chondrus and…”

Seaweed nutrient physiology: application of concepts to aquaculture and bioremediation (2019, background): “In addition, seaweed photosynthesis removes DIC from the surrounding seawater, which modifies the seawater carbonate system such that pH increases and the supply of both CO2 and HCO3 − decreases: at pH 9.0 most DIC is available as carbonate which cannot be used in photosynthesis (Björk et al. 2004).”
Macroalgae may mitigate ocean acidification effects on mussel calcification by increasing pH and its fluctuations (2018, background): “…productive coastal communities driven by biological photosynthesis/respiration cycles in, e.g., tide or rock pools (Truchot and Duhamel-Jouve 1980; Bjork et al. 2004; Beer et al. 2006; Wootton et al. 2008), coral reefs (Shamberger et al. 2011; Gray et al. 2012; Price et al. 2012; Smith et al.…”

Seagrass photosynthesis controls rates of calcification and photosynthesis of calcareous macroalgae in a tropical seagrass meadow (2009, background): “…be significant in shallow areas with high plant densities when water movement is restricted (e.g. in pools or lagoons) but, except in a few cases (Björk et al. 2004, Beer et al. 2006, Middelboe & Hansen 2007), such shifts have not been ascribed any importance as a controlling factor for…”
