Interactive effects of elevated temperature and pCO2 on early-life-history stages of the giant kelp Macrocystis pyrifera (2014, methodology): “Similarly, in a recent study, Roleda et al. (2012) found that low pH values (in absence of additional dissolved inorganic carbon), associated with predicted scenarios of OA, produce a significant reduction on zoospore germination in this marine brown alga.”
EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON GLOBAL SEAWEED COMMUNITIES (2012, background): “Seaweeds are intimately linked to human cultural and economic systems via the provision of ecosystem goods and services ranging from food to medicine to storm protection (Rönnbäck et al. 2007).”
Climate change and ocean acidification effects on seagrasses and marine macroalgae (2013, background): “However, higher [CO2] may ameliorate some of the negative effects of climate change on kelp through life history adaptations (Roleda et al., 2012).”
Climate Change Impacts on Seagrass Meadows and Macroalgal Forests: An Integrative Perspective on Acclimation and Adaptation Potential (2018, background): “However, it seems that the microscopic kelp gametophytes are insensitive to anthropogenic CO2 induced ocean acidification (Roleda et al., 2012; Leal et al., 2017b), and relatively tolerant to ocean warming (Leal et al.”
The Coralline Genus Clathromorphum Foslie emend. Adey: Biological, Physiological, and Ecological Factors Controlling Carbonate Production in an Arctic-Subarctic Climate Archive (2015, background): “However, secondary calcification takes place internally, within highly photosynthetic tissues; it is light that limits skeletal density, and how much of a role ambient water pH plays is uncertain (Roleda et al., 2012).”
Macroalgal responses to ocean acidification depend on nutrient and light levels (2015, background): “…beneﬁt some macroalgae, such as Gracilaria lemaneiformis in China (Zou and Gao, 2009) and mat-forming Feldmannia spp. in Australia (Russell et al., 2011), as well as canopy-forming phaeophytes such as Nereocystis luetkeana and Macrocystis pyrifera (Swanson and Fox, 2007; Roleda et al., 2012).”
Variation in the morphology, reproduction and development of the habitat-forming kelp Ecklonia radiata with changing temperature and nutrients (2013, background): “…of climate change on the microscopic stages (gametophyte and juvenile sporophytes) of the life cycle is likely to be crucial (Hurd et al. 2009, Roleda et al. 2012), but to our knowledge, combined impacts of changes in temperature and nutrients on microscopic stages have not been examined in…”
