“…However, subsequent laboratory experiments on marine fish exposed to values of pH/CO 2 predicted for the end of this century and beyond revealed impacts on additional organisms and processes, such as embryonic and larval development (Frommel et al, 2012(Frommel et al, , 2016Rossi et al, 2015), otolith growth (Checkley et al, 2009;Munday et al, 2011), reproduction (Miller et al, 2013), metabolic rate Rummer et al, 2013;Enzor et al, 2013) and behaviour (Allan et al, 2013;Dixson et al, 2010;Domenici et al, 2012;Hamilton et al, 2013;Munday et al, 2009Munday et al, , 2010Munday et al, , 2016Rossi et al, 2015); however, it is worth noting that these effects are highly variable and depend on the species, experimental conditions, parameters analyzed and experimental techniques used. Most of these effects were proposed to be due to acid-base (A-B) regulatory processes, leading to altered ionic concentrations, energy expenditure and allocation; however, the specific molecular and cellular mechanisms remain largely unexplored.…”
