Contribution of fish to the marine inorganic carbon cycle.

TL;DR: It is reported that marine fish produce precipitated carbonates within their intestines and excrete these at high rates, and it is predicted that fish carbonate production may rise in response to future environmental changes in carbon dioxide, and thus become an increasingly important component of the inorganic carbon cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intestinal bicarbonate secretion by marine teleost fish--why and how?

TL;DR: The present studies on European flounder reveal that elevated luminal calcium (but not magnesium) concentrations stimulate intestinal bicarbonate secretion both acutely and chronically, in vitro and in vivo, and this result was increased calcium precipitation with an associated reduction in the osmolality of rectal fluids and plasma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global-scale predictions of community and ecosystem properties from simple ecological theory

TL;DR: The analyses show that emerging ecological theory can be synthesized to set baselines for assessing human and climate impacts on global scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Animating the Carbon Cycle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors develop the case that fully "animating" the carbon cycle requires broader consideration of the functional role of animals in mediating biogeochemical processes and quantification of their effects on carbon storage and exchange among terrestrial and aquatic reservoirs and the atmosphere.
