Physiological Processes
• Calcification• Photosynthesis• Hypercapnia (too much CO2 in blood)
• Nutrient uptake and limitation• Reduced gene expression• Sensory perception

Photosynthesis
• Two different species of algae
• OA could lead to shifts in algal species composition

Acclimation means the ability of an organism to change its phenotype, or expressed trait so that it can survive in an environment as it changes.
Adaptation means the ability of a population of organisms to change its genotype, or its genes in the DNA, over successive generations (evolution).
- generation times are important- genetic diversity is important

Ecosystem
• Definition: A spatial explicit unit of Earth where living things and the environment interact
• Perturbations (like ocean acidification) can have various direct and indirect effects:– Shifts in species composition and trophic cascade (food
web) effects– Temporal and spatial shifts in ecosystem functions– All of these can change the structure, energy flow, and
other functions of the ecosystem => regime shift

Different Types of Ecosystems Likely to be Affected by OA
• Tropical coral reefs• Pelagic ecosystems (pelagic = open water)• Coastal/ benthic (benthic = bottom substrate)• Deep sea• High latitude
