In 2007, the US west coast shellfish industry began to feel the effects of unprecedented
levels of larval mortality in commercial hatcheries producing the Pacific oyster Crassostrea …

We report results from an oyster hatchery on the Oregon coast, where intake waters
experienced variable carbonate chemistry (aragonite saturation state< 0.8 to> 3.2; pH< 7.6 …

Shifting environmental conditions resulting from anthropogenic climate change have
recently garnered much attention in the aquaculture industry; however, ocean acidification …

Ocean acidification, a consequence of rising anthropogenic CO 2 emissions, is poised to
change marine ecosystems profoundly by increasing dissolved CO 2 and decreasing ocean …

Ocean acidification (OA) is expected to reduce the calcification rates of marine organisms,
yet we have little understanding of how OA will manifest within dynamic, real-world systems …

Anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2) emissions reduce pH of marine waters due to the
absorption of atmospheric CO 2 and formation of carbonic acid. Estuarine waters are more …

Ocean acidification lowers the oceanic saturation states of carbonate minerals and
decreases the calcification rates of some marine organisms that provide a range of …

Continued anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are acidifying our oceans, and
hydrogen ion concentrations in surface oceans are predicted to increase 150% by 2100 …

As the oceans absorb anthropogenic CO2 they become more acidic, a problem termed
ocean acidification (OA). Since this increase in CO2 is occurring rapidly, OA may have …

Ocean acidification (OA) effects on larvae are partially attributed for the rapidly declining
oyster production in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. This OA effect is a …
