We report here the results of an experiment comparing the responses of the coral <i>Acropora yongei</i> and <i>Pocillopora damicornis</i> to differing pH levels (8.09, 7.81, and 7.63) over an 8-week period. Calcification of <i>A</i>. <i>youngei</i> was reduced by 35% at pH 7.63, while calcification of <i>P</i>. <i>damicornis</i> was unaffected. The pH in the calcifying fluid (pH<sub>cf</sub>) was determined using δ<sup>11</sup>B systematics, and for both species pH<sub>cf</sub> declined slightly with seawater pH, with the decrease being more pronounced in <i>P</i>. <i>damicornis</i>. The dissolved inorganic carbon concentration at the site of calcification (DIC<sub>cf</sub>) was estimated using geochemical proxies (B/Ca and δ<sup>11</sup>B) and found to be double that of seawater DIC, and increased in both species as seawater pH decreased. As a consequence, the decline of the saturation state at the site of calcification (Ω<sub>cf</sub>) with OA was partially moderated by the DIC<sub>cf</sub> increase. These results highlight that while pH<sub>cf</sub>, DIC<sub>cf</sub> and Ω<sub>cf</sub> are important in the mineralization process, some corals are able to maintain their calcification rates despite shifts in their calcifying fluid carbonate chemistry.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Decoupling between the response of coral calcifying fluid pH and calcification to ocean acidification","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-15 01:33:00.644959","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":null,"OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2017,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2018-02-13","DateCreate":"2017-09-01","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000407180400003","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.1038/s41598-017-08003-z"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":288968,"PubliDate":2017,"Pagination":"10 pp","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"7","Issue":"1","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":208093,"SerRR":"Scientific Reports (Nature Publishing Group).
