Summary The American lobster, Homarus americanus , is an economically valuable and ecologically important crustacean along the North Atlantic coast of America. Populations in southern locations have declined recent decades due to increasing ocean temperatures disease, these circumstances are progressing northward. We monitored 57 adult female lobsters, healthy shell-diseased, under three seasonal temperature cycles for a year, track shell bacterial communities using culturing 16S rRNA gene sequencing, progression ESD visual assessment, antimicrobial activity hemolymph. richness taxa present, evenness abundance, community similarity between lobsters was affected by water at time sampling, over based on regimes, disease severity, molt stage. Several bacteria were prevalent lobster shells but missing or less abundant diseased shells, although putative pathogens found all regardless health status. Graphical abstract

Kelp forests are threatened by ocean warming, yet effects of co-occurring drivers such as CO 2 rarely considered when predicting their performance in the future. In Australia, kelp Ecklonia radiata forms extensive across seawater temperatures approximately 7–26°C. Cool-edge populations typically more thermally tolerant than warm-edge counterparts but this ignores possibility local adaptation. Moreover, it is unknown whether elevated can mitigate negative warming. To identify could improve thermal a cool-edge population E. , we constructed curves for growth and photosynthesis, under both current (approx. 400 1000 µatm). We then modelled annual warming scenarios to highlight susceptibility. Elevated had minimal effect on increased photosynthesis around optimum. Thermal optima were 16°C 18°C indicated may be vulnerable Our findings demonstrate that unlikely offset potential susceptibility

Understory assemblages associated with canopy-forming species such as trees, kelps, and rockweeds should respond strongly to climate stressors due strong canopy-understory interactions. Climate change can directly indirectly modify these assemblages, particularly during more stressful seasons scenarios. However, fully understanding the seasonal impacts of different conditions on canopy-reliant is difficult a continued emphasis studying single-species responses single future scenario season. To examine emergent effects, we used mesocosm experiments expose seaweed golden rockweed,

Abstract The American lobster, Homarus americanus, H. Milne Edwards, 1837 is an ecologically, economically, and culturally valuable marine resource for the coastal communities in Gulf of Maine. Lobsters Maine are experiencing effects rapid warming acidification due to climate change. Lobster shells comprised chitin with precisely precipitated minerals (calcite, amorphous calcium carbonate, carbonate apatite) that provide structural integrity shell protection against predators microbial intrusion. We examined combined ocean on mineralogy, epibiont abundance, growth early benthic juveniles. were grown under six different temperature/pCO2 treatment conditions over 52 days (three replicates per treatment) aligned environmentally relevant as well predicted future extremes.

The relationship between adverse environmental conditions and grooming behavior is an unresolved mechanism whereby a changing climate may impact reproductive success in animals that brood their eggs.
