Abstract. Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) is changing seawater chemistry towards reduced pH, which affects various properties of marine organisms. Coastal and brackish water communities are expected to be less affected by ocean acidification (OA) as these typically adapted high fluctuations in CO2 pH. Here we investigate the response a coastal plankton community increasing levels projected for coming decades end this century terms biochemical fatty acid (FA) composition. A Baltic...
Abstract. Ocean acidification is challenging phenotypic plasticity of individuals and populations. Calanoid copepods (zooplankton) are shown to be fairly plastic against altered pH conditions, laboratory studies indicate that transgenerational effects one mechanism behind this plasticity. We studied the copepod Acartia sp. in course a pelagic, large-volume mesocosm study was conducted investigate ecosystem biogeochemical responses ocean acidification. measured egg production rate,...
Global warming is causing changes in the food web structure and seasonal plankton dynamics. The Baltic Sea one of fastest-warming sea areas consequently affects timing magnitude phytoplankton blooms. Based on available Chlorophyll a data from nine years between 1979 2018, entrance to Gulf Finland, we studied spring bloom relation seawater temperature. We found peak occur earlier with higher In warmer years, there was also shorter time lag zooplankton biomass peaks. addition, it seems as...
Abstract. Ocean acidification is caused by increasing amounts of carbon dioxide dissolving in the oceans leading to lower seawater pH. We studied effects lowered pH on calanoid copepod Eurytemora affinis during a mesocosm experiment conducted coastal area Baltic Sea. measured reproductive success as function pH, chlorophyll concentration, diatom and dinoflagellate biomass, nitrogen (C : N) ratio suspended particulate organic matter, well fatty acid composition. The laboratory-based was...

Abstract Diatoms commonly set off the spring-bloom in temperate coastal environments. However, their temporal offset may change regions subject to nutrient enrichment, and by peaking earlier, such populations can maintain position vernal plankton succession. We tested whether marine keystone diatom Skeletonema marinoi accomplish this through thermal evolutionary adaptation. Eight geographically separated subpopulations, representing hydromorphologically climatologically similar inlets...
