- Calcifying plankton: From biomineralization to global change. Ziveri, Patrizia Langer, Gerald Chaabane, Sonia de Vries, Joost Gray, William Robert Keul, Nina Hatton, Ian A Manno, Clara Norris, Richard Pallacks, Sven Young, Jeremy R Schiebel, Ralf Zarkogiannis, Stergios Anglada-Ortiz, Griselda Bianco, Stefania de Garidel-Thoron, Thibault Grelaud, Michaël Lucas, Arturo Probert, Ian Mortyn, P Graham Climate Change Calcium Carbonate Plankton Seawater Foraminifera Biomineralization Animals Carbon Cycle Hydrogen-Ion Concentration Oceans and Seas Haptophyta Carbon Dioxide The cycling of calcium carbonate (CaCO) in the ocean is closely linked to seawater alkalinity and the regulation of atmospheric CO. In the modern pelagic ocean, almost all CaCO is produced by three groups of calcifying planktonic organisms: coccolithophores, foraminifers, and shelled pteropods. In this Review, we examine the differences in functional traits that define each group's distinctive role in the global carbon cycle and their sensitivity to climate change and ocean acidification. This synthesis reveals that a single representation of CaCO in climate models is unlikely to accurately reflect system dynamics or their impacts on biogeochemical cycling under climate change. We argue that understanding past and future CaCO cycle requires a better delineation of the traits that make up the diversity of calcifying plankton groups.
