Sentences with phrase «under ocean acidification conditions»

Studies that have explored species responses to biotic stimuli and interactions under ocean acidification conditions using laboratory experiments [25 — 28]-RRB- and field observations or manipulations around CO2 vents [29 — 32] provide some evidence that species interactions and community dynamics can be fundamentally affected.

After 500 generations under controlled CO2 conditions adapted cultures grew and calcified significantly better compared non-adapted control cultures when tested under ocean acidification conditions.

The one - two punch of warming waters and ocean acidification is predisposing some marine animals to dissolving quickly under conditions already occurring off the Northern California coast, according to a study from the University of California, Davis.

For example, contrary to their assertion, current conditions in the eastern Pacific are almost the antithesis of projected conditions for most reef systems under global warming and ocean acidification.

Ocean acidification slows nitrogen fixation and growth in the dominant diazotroph Trichodesmium under low - iron conditions.

Even after more than two thousand generations under acidified conditions, these responses still prevail to some extent, suggesting that evolutionary adaptation may not be able to completely eliminate the negative effects of ocean acidification.

«While many branching corals dominate under normal pH conditions offering ample hiding space for the different species of zooplankton, ocean acidification shifts the community to large, massive bouldering corals, which offer the reef - associated plankton little opportunity for hiding».

Odor tracking in sharks is reduced under future ocean acidification conditions.

What it means In summing up the implications of their findings, the Portuguese scientists say that they further support the fact that «there is no evidence of CO2 - related mortalities of juvenile or adult bivalves in natural habitats, even under conditions that far exceed the worst - case scenarios for future ocean acidification (Tunnicliffe et al., 2009).»

And in this regard, numerous scientific studies have demonstrated the robustness of multiple marine plant and animal species to ocean acidification — when they are properly performed under realistic experimental conditions.

Here, using the longest experiment to date (542 days), we investigate how the interactive effects of warming and ocean acidification affect the growth, behaviour and associated levels of ecosystem functioning (nutrient release) for a functionally important non-calcifying intertidal polychaete (Alitta virens) under seasonally changing conditions.
