It is expected that by 2050 human population will exceed nine billion leading to increased
pressure on marine ecosystems. Therefore, it is conjectured various levels of ecosystem …

Crustaceans permeate every habitat on Earth but are especially impactful in the marine
environment. They can be small and extremely abundant like the ubiquitous marine …

Crustacean olfaction is fundamental to most aspects of living and communicating in aquatic
environments and more broadly, for individual‐and population‐level success. Accelerated …

Assessing decapod sensitivity to regional-scale ocean acidification (OA) conditions is limited
because of a fragmented understanding of the thresholds at which they exhibit biological …

Structural and mechanical properties of the decapod exoskeleton affect foraging, defense,
and locomotion. Ocean acidification (OA) poses a threat to marine biomes and their …

Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister) are the most valuable fishery on the US West
Coast and both larval and adult Dungeness crabs are important components of regional …

Climate change is imposing constant and more severe environmental challenges to coastal
and marine species. Regional climate and species acclimation capacity determine the …

The unprecedented rate of carbon dioxide accumulation in the atmosphere has led to
increased warming, acidification and oxygen depletion in the world's oceans, with projected …

Anthropogenic inputs into coastal ecosystems are causing more frequent environmental
fluctuations and reducing seawater pH. One such ecosystem is Florida Bay, an important …

Ocean acidification (OA), which reduces ocean pH and leads to substantial changes in
seawater carbonate chemistry, may strongly impact organisms, especially those with …
