Ocean warming and acidification have been shown to elicit deleterious effects on cephalopod mollusks, especially during early ontogeny, albeit behavior remain largely unexplored. This study aimed evaluate, for the first time, effect of end-of-the-century projected levels ocean (W; + 3 °C) (A; 980 µatm pCO2) Sepia officinalis hatchlings' exploratory ability camouflage in different substrate complexities (sand black white gravel). Cuttlefish were recorded open field tests, from which mobility...
Ocean deoxygenation and standing levels of hypoxia are shrinking fundamental niches, particularly in coastal areas, yet documented repercussions on species development behaviour limited. Here, we tackled the impacts (7 mg O 2 l −1 ), mild (nocturnal 5 ) severe cuttlefish ( Sepia officinalis (hatching success, time, mantle length), cognition (ability to learn individually socially) camouflage explore its surroundings spatially). We found that yielded lower survival rates, smaller body sizes...
Abstract The ocean is undergoing deoxygenation and the spread of hypoxic areas. Ocean standing levels hypoxia are shrinking fundamental niches, particularly in coastal areas, yet documented repercussions on species development behavior limited. Here, we tackled impacts (7 mg O2 L -1 ), mild (nocturnal 5 severe (2 ) cuttlefish ( Sepia officinalis (hatching success, time, mantle length) behavior, i.e., ability to learn (associative-and socially), camouflage, explore its surroundings spatially....
