 fication research: are brooding species 'winners'?\n\n\n\nSpeaker:  Dr. Ma
 tthew Gray\, Horn Point Laboratory\, UMCES\n\n\n\nAbstract: As oceans and 
 many estuaries become more acidic\, identifying adaptable or non-adaptable
  (‘winners’ or ‘losers’) will enable better predictions of communities and
  ecosystem function alterations due to climate change. Marine bivalves are
  frequently subjects of ocean acidification (OA) research due to their per
 ceived vulnerability that threatens their survival and loss of their valua
 ble ecosystem services. Studies indicate that larvae of many broadcast spa
 wning oyster and mussel species are physiologically sensitive to alteratio
 ns in carbonate chemistry\; however\, recent investigations of brooding oy
 ster species (genus Ostrea) suggest they may be OA stress resistant. The p
 recise mechanism conferring this apparent resistance to OA is currently un
 known but may be linked to the typical conditions larvae encounter in the 
 brood chamber during development. This seminary will highlight the current
  understanding of brooding behavior and brood chamber conditions among Ost
 rea spp. and proposes how the brooding life-history trait may or may not p
 repare young to be well adapted for the increasingly acidic ocean and estu
 arine conditions predicted for the future.
