Predicting the effects of ocean acidification on predator-prey interactions: a conceptual framework based on coastal molluscs
Posted on OA: 2 Aug 2014 — Kroeker K. J., Sanford E., Jellison B. N. & Gaylord B., 2014. The Biological Bulletin 226 (3): 211-222 The influence of environmental change on species interactions will affect population dynamics and community structure in the future, but our current understanding of the outcomes
The skeleton of postmetamorphic echinoderms in a changing world
Posted on OA: 01 Aug 2014 Available evidence on the impact of acidification and its interaction with warming on the skeleton of postmetamorphic (juvenile and adult) echinoderms is reviewed. Data are available on sea urchins, starfish, and brittle stars in 33 studies. Skeleton growth of juveniles of all sea urchin
Effects of seawater acidification on gene expression: resolving broader-scale trends in sea urchins
Posted on OA: 01 Aug 2014 Sea urchins are ecologically and economically important calcifying organisms threatened by acidification of the global ocean caused by anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Propelled by the sequencing of the purple sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus purpuratus) genome, profiling changes in gene expression during exposure to high pCO2 seawater
