TL;DR: The response and resistance to ocean acidification are consequently not controlled by feeding in this species, but more likely by chemical reactions at the site of calcification and exchange processes between the calicoblastic layer and ambient seawater.

TL;DR: The contribution of sectoral carbon budgets to the understanding of the global carbon cycle has been discussed in this article, where the authors identify the main gaps in their knowledge/data, show that coverage is better for the developed world for most sectors, and suggest how sectoral CO2 budgets could be improved in the future.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of ocean acidification on the balance between gross community production (GCP) and community respiration (CR) of plankton communities was investigated in summer 2010 in Kongsfjorden, west of Svalbard.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on two fundamental flaws in Loa´ iciga's published analysis that invalidate his conclusions: (1) he erroneously assumes instantaneous chemical equilibration of the ocean with carbonate minerals although this process is known to take five to ten thousand years and (2) many marine organisms are sensitive to a pH decrease of 0.2 units.
