“…The results presented here demonstrate that a pH level within the range of the lower limit of the FAO's and IPCC predictions (FAO, 2019;Krinner et al, 2013) can cause alterations in the growth of P. lividus 4-arm pluteus larvae. In a scenario of climate change, such alterations are presumably related to variations in the capacity of individuals to calcify their structures in response to a lower pH and increased pCO 2 generated by the increase in the atmospheric CO 2 (Foo et al, 2020;Johnson et al, 2020;Kurihara and Shirayama, 2004;Rengifo et al, 2019;Rodríguez et al, 2017;Sheppard Brennand et al, 2010;Zhan et al, 2016). In this work the water pH was decreased without a direct increase of the pCO2, so we conclude that lower pH provokes alterations in growth and development that might not be totally related to disruptions in the calcification process.…”

“…In this regard, sea urchins are ecologically important grazers that have shown to mediate transitions in temperate kelp (Castro et al, 2020;Ling et al, 2018) and tropical coral ecosystems (Castro et al, 2020). Moreover, sea urchins have calcareous structures and calcify in their planktonic and benthic life stages (larvae and adult stages, respectively) and therefore alterations in water pH and pCO 2 can result in lower calcification and therefore development problems (Byrne and Hernández, 2020;Sheppard Brennand et al, 2010;Stumpp et al, 2012;Wolfe et al, 2013;Zhan et al, 2016). Thus, sea urchins represent an excellent group to assess the impact of climate change in the laboratory, being a recurrent model for this type of studies in the last few years (Foo et al, 2020).…”

Sexual reproduction is a fundamental process essential for species persistence, evolution, and diversity. However, unprecedented oceanographic shifts due to climate change can impact physiological processes, with important implications for sexual reproduction. Identifying bottlenecks and vulnerable stages in reproductive cycles will enable better prediction of the organism, population, community, and global-level consequences of ocean change. This article reviews how ocean acidification impacts sexual reproductive processes in marine invertebrates and highlights current research gaps. We focus on five economically and ecologically important taxonomic groups: cnidarians, crustaceans, echinoderms, molluscs and ascidians. We discuss the spatial and temporal variability of experimental designs, identify trends of performance in acidified conditions in the context of early reproductive traits (gametogenesis, fertilization, and reproductive resource allocation), and provide a quantitative meta-analysis of the published literature to assess the effects of low pH on fertilization rates across taxa. A total of 129 published studies investigated the effects of ocean acidification on 122 species in selected taxa. The impact of ocean acidification is dependent on taxa, the specific reproductive process examined, and study location. Our meta-analysis reveals that fertilization rate decreases as pH decreases, but effects are taxa-specific. Echinoderm fertilization appears more sensitive than molluscs to pH changes, and while data are limited, fertilization in cnidarians may be the most sensitive. Studies with echinoderms and bivalve molluscs are prevalent, while crustaceans and cephalopods are among the least studied species even though they constitute some of the largest fisheries worldwide. This lack of information has important implications for commercial aquaculture, wild fisheries, and conservation and restoration of wild populations. We recommend that studies expose organisms to different ocean acidification levels during the entire gametogenic cycle, and not only during the final stages before gametes or larvae are released. We argue for increased focus on fundamental reproductive processes and associated molecular mechanisms that may be vulnerable to shifts in ocean chemistry. Our recommendations for future research will allow for a better understanding of how reproduction in invertebrates will be affected in the context of a rapidly changing environment.

“…Several studies have reported marginal levels for calcifiers for ocean acidification of arag = ca. 1.1-1.5 [e.g., Waldbusser et al, 2015 for bivalve larvae, Zhan et al, 2016 for sea urchin (S. intermedius), and Onitsuka et al, 2018 for Ezo abalone larvae]. The marine environment is suitable for calcifiers above the marginal levels and unsuitable (critical) below them, while the levels differ with species abundance, life stages and locations.…”

“…The impact of ocean acidification on calcifiers has already been reported, such as the significant mortality of oyster (Crassostrea gigas) larvae (Feely et al, 2008;Barton et al, 2012) and damage to the carapaces of larval Dungeness crabs (Metacarcinus magister; Bednaršek et al, 2020) in the high-CO 2 environment of the Pacific northwest coast of the United States of America. Several studies have shown that ocean acidification also affects the life stages of calcifiers differently, and the larvae are more vulnerable to high CO 2 (e.g., Kurihara, 2008;Kimura et al, 2011;Waldbusser et al, 2015;Zhan et al, 2016;Onitsuka et al, 2018;Foo et al, 2020). Ocean acidification also affects non-calcifiers, such as by impairing the fertilization of eggs (e.g., Morita et al, 2009) and olfactory discrimination and homing ability (e.g., Munday et al, 2009Munday et al, , 2014Dixson et al, 2015).…”

Continuous Monitoring and Future Projection of Ocean Warming, Acidification, and Deoxygenation on the Subarctic Coast of Hokkaido, Japan

As the ocean absorbs excessive anthropogenic CO2 and ocean acidification proceeds, it is thought to be harder for marine calcifying organisms, such as shellfish, to form their skeletons and shells made of calcium carbonate. Recent studies have suggested that various marine organisms, both calcifiers and non-calcifiers, will be affected adversely by ocean warming and deoxygenation. However, regardless of their effects on calcifiers, the spatiotemporal variability of parameters affecting ocean acidification and deoxygenation has not been elucidated in the subarctic coasts of Japan. This study conducted the first continuous monitoring and future projection of physical and biogeochemical parameters of the subarctic coast of Hokkaido, Japan. Our results show that the seasonal change in biogeochemical parameters, with higher pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in winter than in summer, was primarily regulated by water temperature. The daily fluctuations, which were higher in the daytime than at night, were mainly affected by daytime photosynthesis by primary producers and respiration by marine organisms at night. Our projected results suggest that, without ambitious commitment to reducing CO2 and other greenhouse gas emissions, such as by following the Paris Agreement, the impact of ocean warming and acidification on calcifiers along subarctic coasts will become serious, exceeding the critical level of high temperature for 3 months in summer and being close to the critical level of low saturation state of calcium carbonate for 2 months in mid-winter, respectively, by the end of this century. The impact of deoxygenation might often be prominent assuming that the daily fluctuation in DO concentration in the future is similar to that at present. The results also suggest the importance of adaptation strategies by local coastal industries, especially fisheries, such as modifying aquaculture styles.
