Strain-specific responses of Emiliania huxleyi to changing seawater carbonate chemistry

TL;DR: In this paper, four strains of the coccolithophore E. huxleyi (RCC1212, RCC1216, RC1238, and RC1256) were grown in dilute batch culture at four CO2 levels ranging from ~200μatm to ~1200 μatm and growth rate, particulate organic carbon content, and particulate inorganic carbon content were measured.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for methane production by the marine algae Emiliania huxleyi

TL;DR: The absence of methanogenic archaea within the algal culture and the oxic conditions during CH4 formation suggest that the widespread marine algae Emiliania huxleyi might contribute to the observed spatially and temporally restricted CH4 oversaturation in ocean surface waters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physiological controls on seawater uptake and calcification in the benthic foraminifer Ammonia tepida

TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that endocytosis of seawater is part of the calcification process in Ammonia tepida and suggests that foraminifera may precipitate their calcite from an amorphous precursor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of ocean acidification on the benthic foraminifera Ammonia sp. is caused by a decrease in carbonate ion concentration

TL;DR: In this paper, the state-of-the-art literature on OA effects on foraminifera has been compiled, highlighting the importance of a process-based understanding of ocean acidification effects on marine calcifiers.
Journal ArticleDOI

The coordination and distribution of B in foraminiferal calcite

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used synchrotron X-ray spectromicroscopy to show that B is hosted solely as trigonal BO3 in the calcite test of Amphistegina lessonii, and that B concentration exhibits banding at the micron length scale.
