dc.description.abstractNoticeable changes in global temperatures, climate and ocean carbon chemistry are the result of carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere. This increase has been mitigated by the oceans capacity to absorb one-fourth of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, although this CO2 intake affects oceans carbonate chemistry [i.e., ocean acidification-(OA)]. The detrimental effect of OA in the development and shell formation has been studied in several species of bivalves, although no information is available on the wedge shell Donax trunculus, a gastronomically appreciated species and an important economical resource in several southern European countries. We evaluated the effect of pCO(2) increase on hatching and early life stages of D. trunculus, considering two ocean acidification scenarios (Delta pH -0.3 and Delta pH -0.6). Our results showed that elevated pCO(2) caused a delay in hatching into D-larvae and reduced larvae survival. In the extreme scenario (Delta pH -0.6), some trochophore larvae persisted to day 9 of the experiment and more abnormal larvae were produced than in the Delta pH -0.3 and control treatments. At day 5, normal veligers under extreme acidification were smaller than in other treatments, but by day 9, these differences were attenuated and the average size of normal D-larvae varied inversely to the pH gradient. Possible underlying mechanisms for these complex response patterns are discussed, including the existence of phenotypic plasticity or genetic pre-adaptive capacity in this D. trunculus population to cope with future environmental changes.
