The emission of greenhouse gases has grown in unprecedented levels since the beginning
of the industrial era. As a result, global climate changes, such as heightened global …

Many calcifying organisms utilize metabolic CO2 to generate CaCO3 minerals to harden
their shells and skeletons. Carbonic anhydrases are evolutionary ancient enzymes that have …

Abstract Effects of increasing temperature alone and in combination with exposure to
dissolved copper (Cu) were evaluated in the zooxanthellate scleractinian coral Mussismilia …

Diurnal p CO2 fluctuations have the potential to modulate the biological impact of ocean
acidification (OA) on reef calcifiers, yet little is known about the physiological and …

Coral reefs are threatened by global and local impacts, such as ocean acidification (OA) and
metal contamination. Toxicity of metals, such as copper (Cu), is expected to be enhanced …

In recent years, the safety of sunscreens to coral reefs and the role these products would
play in the process of coral bleaching has been a concern. However, the discussion centers …

This study has as main objective assessing the toxicity of crack-cocaine combined with
different scenarios of ocean acidification on fertilization rate and embryo-larval development …

We evaluated the influence of metal accumulation on the oxidative status [lipid peroxidation
(LPO) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC)] and carbonic anhydrase (CA) activity in host and …

Coral reefs are subjected to climate change and are severely impacted by human activities,
with copper (Cu) being a relevant physiological stressor for corals at local scale. The …

Global impacts are affecting negatively coral reefs' health worldwide. Ocean acidification
associated with the increasing CO 2 partial pressure in the atmosphere can potentially …
