Ecological and functional consequences of coastal ocean acidification: Perspectives from the Baltic-Skagerrak System

Abstract: Ocean temperatures are rising; species are shifting poleward, and pH is falling (ocean acidification, OA). We summarise current understanding of OA in the brackish Baltic-Skagerrak System, focussing on the direct, indirect and interactive effects of OA with other anthropogenic drivers on marine biogeochemistry, organisms and ecosystems. Substantial recent advances reveal a pattern of stronger responses (positive or negative) of species than ecosystems, more positive responses at lower trophic levels and strong… Show more

“…Ocean water, after being pumped by an open-loop scrubber to wash away gaseous and particulate emissions and other toxic matters, flows into the ocean again. Hence, the operation of open-loop scrubber is considered to cause ocean acidification and pollution [59]. The finding agrees with that of Teuchies et al [60].…”

“…This particular sea is strongly impacted by environmental variability, due to a relatively shallow water depth, a high land to water ratio, and the fact of being enclosed with limited excess to full marine seawater conditions 69 . Sporadic inflow events from the North Sea provide high-saline waters to this mostly brackish environment 69 , seasonal pH variability increases in amplitude 70,71 , and wind-driven sporadic up-welling shoals highly acidic and hypoxic water masses 72 . Regular tides are absent, while sporadic winddriven water level changes occur.…”

“…Spatial refugia based on the biological removal of CO 2 potentially exist in hotspots of primary production. For example, in highlatitude environments, the extended photoperiod and high nutrient levels maintain primary production and high pH for several months in summer (Duarte & Krause-Jensen, 2018;Havenhand et al, 2018;Kapsenberg et al, 2015;Krause-Jensen et al, 2016). Like other spatial refugia, high-latitude environments are not isolated from ocean acidification and are actually considered one of the most vulnerable ecosystems due to naturally cold, CO 2 -rich waters (Orr et al, 2005).…”
