Calcifying marine phytoplankton—coccolithophores—are some of the most successful yet
enigmatic organisms in the ocean and are at risk from global change. To better understand …

Voltage-gated proton channels (HV) are unique, in part because the ion they conduct is
unique. HV channels are perfectly selective for protons and have a very small unitary …

About one-third of the carbon dioxide (CO2) released into the atmosphere as a result of
human activity has been absorbed by the oceans, where it partitions into the constituent ions …

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 …

Coccolithophores occupy a special position within the marine phytoplankton because of
their production of intricate calcite scales, or coccoliths. Coccolithophores are major …

The effects of ocean acidification on the life‐cycle stages of the coccolithophore Emiliania
huxleyi and their modulation by light were examined. Calcifying diploid and noncalcifying …

A fundamental requirement of all eukaryotes is the ability to translocate protons across
membranes. This is critical in bioenergetics, for compartmentalized metabolism, and to …

Ocean Acidification (OA) has been an important research topic for a decade. Scientists have
focused on how the predicted 56% decline in the seawater carbonate ion () concentration …

Coccolithophores are major contributors to global marine planktonic calcification, and in
nature coccolithophores are invariably calcified through almost all of their life cycle. The …

The coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi was cultured under a broad range of carbonate
chemistry conditions to distinguish the effects of individual carbonate system parameters on …
