Journal ArticleDOI
Decreased abundance of crustose coralline algae due to ocean acidification
Ilsa B. Kuffner,Andreas J. Andersson,Andreas J. Andersson,Paul L. Jokiel,Ku’ulei S. Rodgers,Fred T. Mackenzie +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a seven-week experiment explores the effects of ocean acidification on crustose coralline algae, a cosmopolitan group of calcifying algae that is ecologically important in most shallow-water habitats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ocean acidification and calcifying reef organisms: a mesocosm investigation
Paul L. Jokiel,Ku’ulei S. Rodgers,Ilsa B. Kuffner,Andreas J. Andersson,E. F. Cox,Fred T. Mackenzie +5 more
TL;DR: A long-term controlled experiment was conducted to test the impact of increased partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) on common calcifying coral reef organisms and found acidification had a profound impact on the development and growth of crustose coralline algae populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Net loss of CaCO 3 from coral reef communities due to human induced seawater acidification
TL;DR: Experimental results provide support for the conclusion that some net calcifying communities could become subject to net dissolution in response to anthropogenic ocean acidification within this century.
Journal ArticleDOI
Considerations for maximizing the adaptive potential of restored coral populations in the western Atlantic.
Iliana B. Baums,Andrew C. Baker,Sarah W. Davies,Andréa G. Grottoli,Carly D. Kenkel,Sheila A. Kitchen,Ilsa B. Kuffner,Todd C. LaJeunesse,Mikhail V. Matz,Margaret W. Miller,John Everett Parkinson,Andrew A. Shantz +11 more
TL;DR: Basic guidelines to help restoration practitioners meet the adaptive potential of reef‐building corals facing a rapidly changing environment are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships Between Reef Fish Communities and Remotely Sensed Rugosity Measurements in Biscayne National Park, Florida, USA
Ilsa B. Kuffner,John C. Brock,Rikki Grober-Dunsmore,Victor Bonito,T. Donald Hickey,C. Wayne Wright +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the utility of new technology in airborne laser surveying (EAARL) in assessing topographical complexity (rugosity) to predict reef fish community structure on shallow (<10 m deep) patch reefs.
