Benthic foraminiferal shell weight: Deglacial species-specific responses from the Santa Barbara Basin
Posted on OA: 28 Sep 2016 — Davis C. V., Myhre S. E. & Hill T. M., 2016. Marine Micropaleontology 124:45–53 Here we present a record of size-normalized shell weight for four species of benthic foraminifera through a period of rapid environmental change during the most recent deglaciation (Santa Barbara
Metabolic responses of the North Pacific krill, Euphausia pacifica, to short- and long-term pCO2 exposure

Marine Biology 163:207 While ocean acidification is likely to have major effects on many marine organisms, those species that regularly experience variable pCO2 environments
Sensitivity of California Current species to ocean acidification
by Diane Plescher-Steele — last modified Sep 19, 2016 06:10 PM Posted on OA: 9 Sep 2016 A new study estimated the sensitivity of different groups of marine species to ocean acidification (OA) within the California Current ecosystem. Species groups were designated based on having similar functions in the ecosystem
