Ocean acidification (OA) is generally assumed to negatively impact calcification rates of
marine organisms. At a local scale however, biological activity of macrophytes may generate …

The literature on ocean acidification (OA) contains a prevalent misconception that reduced
organismal calcification rates in an acidifying ocean are driven by a reduction in carbonate …

Coral reefs are built of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) produced biogenically by a diversity of
calcifying plants, animals, and microbes. As the ocean warms and acidifies, there is …

The measured carbon isotopic compositions of carbonate sediments (δ13Ccarb) on modern
platforms are commonly 13C‐enriched compared to predicted values for minerals forming in …

Long-term coral reef resilience to multiple stressors depends on their ability to maintain
positive calcification rates. Estimates of coral ecosystem calcification and organic …

Global carbon emissions continue to acidify the oceans, motivating growing concern for the
ability of coral reefs to maintain net positive calcification rates. Efforts to develop robust …

Coralline algae are susceptible to the changes in the seawater carbonate system associated
with ocean acidification (OA). However, the coastal environments in which corallines grow …

Marine organisms precipitate 0.5–2.0 Gt of carbon as calcium carbonate (CaCO 3) every
year with a profound impact on global biogeochemical element cycles. Biotic calcification …

Biogenic, seasonal, and stochastic fluctuations at various scales characterize coastal marine
habitats and modulate environmental stress. The relevance of most past studies into climate …

There are few in situ studies showing how net community calcification (Gnet) of coral reefs is
related to carbonate chemistry, and the studies to date have demonstrated different …
