TL;DR: The most comprehensive meta-analysis to date by synthesizing the results of 228 studies examining biological responses to ocean acidification reveals decreased survival, calcification, growth, development and abundance in response to acidification, and suggests that other factors, such as nutritional status or source population, could cause substantial variation in organisms' responses.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors argue that ocean acidification from anthropogenic CO2 emissions is largely an open ocean syndrome and that a concept of anthro- pogenic impacts on marine pH, which is applicable across the entire ocean, from coastal to open-ocean environments, provides a superior framework to consider the multiple components of the anthropogenic perturbation of marine pH trajectories.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors observed diel pH changes in shallow (5-12 m) seagrass (Posidonia oceanica) meadows spanning 0.06 pH units in September to 0.24 units in June.

TL;DR: It is shown, based on a meta-analysis of existing experimental results assessing the role of food supply in the response of organisms to OA, that food supply consistently confers calcifiers resistance to ocean acidification.

TL;DR: califying organisms have developed the capacity to alter the pH of their calcifying environment, or specifically within critical tissues where calcification occurs, thus achieving a homeostasis, and this capacity to control the conditions for calcification at the organism scale may buffer the full impacts of ocean acidification on an organism scale.
