> Abstract:
>
> Ocean acidification can have profound effects on marine organisms, particularly those that rely on calcium carbonate for shell and skeleton formation, in turn resulting in structural changes to marine ecosystems. Here, we used an asymmetrical sampling design to contrast the structure of the marine molluscs associated with an abundant shallow-water macroalga Halopteris scoparia in areas with naturally carbonated seawater (associated with the presence of littoral CO2 seeps) and reference conditions, off the Azores archipelago. Mollusc richness was significantly lower at the CO2 seep compared to reference locations. Abundance was also substantially lower, but this was not significantly so. Species accumulation curves showed that, for a given number of individuals, richness of the mollusc assemblage was always smaller in the CO2 seep. β-diversity was also significantly lower in the CO2 and indicated that samples were more similar than expected by the null model of species assembly. Overall, there was significant variation between CO2 and reference locations in the structure of the assemblage when using Jaccard, but not, Bray-Curtis, similarity indices. All species present at the CO2 seep were also found at reference locations, but the inverse was not true. Overall, our study adds to the wider literature by showing that even though some organisms can live (or benefit) from conditions provided by acidified conditions (e.g. some macroalgae), the assemblages they support still do not mimic those found in reference conditions.
