Noncalcifying larvae in a changing ocean: warming, not acidification/hypercapnia, is the dominant stressor on development of the sea star Meridiastra calcar

Abstract: Climate change driven ocean warming and acidification is potentially detrimental to the sensitive planktonic life stages of benthic marine invertebrates. Research has focused on the effects of acidification on calcifying larvae with a paucity of data on species with alternate developmental strategies and on the interactive effects of warming and acidification. To determine the impact of climate change on a conspicuous component of the intertidal fauna of southeast Australia, the development of the noncalcifyin… Show more

“…We analysed data on arm length prior to commencement of feeding because after food is introduced to sea urchin larval cultures, comparisons between studies are confounded by the natural phenotypic plasticity in arm growth due to a feedback mechanism linking nutritive rstb.royalsocietypublishing.org Phil Trans R Soc B 368: 20120439 environment (food levels and larval density) and arm length, the expression of which differs among echinoid families [40,41]. Most studies report pH on the pH NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) scale, which is approximately 0.1 units lower than the pH t (total) scale ( [69], see also, [26,58]). To compare all data on the NIST scale, we added 0.1 pH units to the pH t values provided by studies that used this scale.…”

“…For the tropical sand dollar A. placenta, larval size increases with warming, but as the boundary of optimal temperature for development is approached and exceeded larvae are smaller [101]. For asteroid brachiolaria, near-future warming also stunted larval growth [26]. Understanding the potential interactive effect of concurrent ocean acidification and warming remains a significant challenge.…”

“…Only 3 studies studied the combination between warming and acidification on echinoderm larvae. In seastar Meridiastra calcar larval growth rate decreased while temperature increased although there was not any effect from acidification treatment (Nguyen et al, 2012). Based on the theoretical framework developed by Pörtner and Farrell (2008) it was predicted that (i) response to ocean acidification is modulated by temperature and, (ii) ocean acidification can only drive negative response in animals.…”
