Highlights • Triclosan bioaccumulation was enhanced under forecasted climate change conditions. • Triclosan strongly affected clams’ antioxidant defences. • Cellular damage was prevented by enzymatic and behaviour defence mechanisms. • Greater response of the Manila clam to TCS exposure combined with climate change scenario. Abstract Ocean acidification and warming are among the man-induced factors that […]

Despite the wide knowledge about prevalent effects of ocean acidification on single species, the consequences on species interactions that may promote or prevent habitat shifts are still poorly understood. Using natural CO2 vents, we investigated changes in a key tri-trophic chain embedded within all its natural complexity in seagrass systems. We found that seagrass habitats […]
A range of information is collated through a simple framework that will help marine scientists to design more accurate experiments that will better help them understand the projected impact of global warming on marine life. Understanding the consequences of rising carbon dioxide (CO2) levels and global warming for marine life requires complex experiments that can […]
Highlights • The combined effects of acidification and hypoxia on physiological performance of mussels were investigated. • Diel fluctuating hypoxia and acidification had less impact on the internal environment of mussels compared with constant exposure. • Mussels had higher growth performance under diel cycling acidification and hypoxia compared with constant exposure. • Mussels showed stronger […]
The International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) was launched in 1987 to coordinate international research on global-scale and regional-scale interactions between Earth’s biological, chemical and physical processes and their interactions with human systems. IGBP’s international core projects Integrated Marine Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Research (IMBER), Surface Ocean–Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS), Past Global Changes (PAGES) and Land–Ocean Interactions in the Coastal Zone (LOICZ) study ocean acidification.

Established by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 1960, the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC-UNESCO) promotes international cooperation and coordinates programmes in marine research, services, observation systems, hazard mitigation, and capacity development in order to understand and effectively manage the resources of the ocean and coastal areas.

The Scientific Committee on Oceanic Research (SCOR) was established by the International Council for Science (ICSU) in 1957 and is a co-sponsor of the international projects IMBER and SOLAS.

The Ocean Acidification International Coordination Center (OA-ICC) is operated by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)’s Environmental Laboratories in Monaco. An advisory board, including members of the SOLAS-IMBER Ocean Acidification Working Group (SIOA WG), provides recommendations to the project. The OA-ICC works in close collaboration with the Ocean Acidification international Reference User Group (iOA-RUG), a forum for dialogue between researchers and stakeholders.

By the end of 2015 IGBP and its projects will be merging into a new international research initiative on global sustainability, Future Earth. Future Earth is a 10-year international programme that will provide critical knowledge required for societies to face the challenges posed by global environmental change and to identify opportunities for a transition to global sustainability.

There was an event when shower chairs are only used by old people and people with
actual incapacity. Happiness is multiplied when shared, so it is with the arrival of new baby that baby showers brings friends and
relatives together offering a emotional support to the parents and celebrating the occasion with
gusto. This make take a bit of background research because you want to be
sure you are speaking with someone who is giving
expert advice customized to the specific health
needs of your little one.
Why people still use to read news papers when in this
technological globe everything is accessible
on web?
