“…Gao et al 1991, 1993, Mercado et al 1999, Gordillo et al 2001, Zou 2005, Corn wall et al 2012, and have found varied responses. However, calcifying macroalgae, particularly high-magnesium calcite-depositing coralline algae, show pronounced sensitivity to elevated CO 2 concentrations with respect to calcification rates, necrosis, mortality, and recruitment , Büdenbender et al 2011, Hofmann et al 2012, Porzio et al 2011). Due to the variable reactions of noncalcifying and calcifying macroalgae to elevated CO 2 , it is likely that macro algal communities will show considerable changes in structure and diversity in future oceans.…”
