Response of pteropod and related faunas to climate change and ocean acidification
… highlighted the aragonitic shelled thecosomatous pteropods as being at a high risk. Laboratory studies have shown that increased pCO2, leading to decreased pH and low carbonate concentrations, has a negative impact on the ability of pteropods to calcify and maintain their shells. This study …

Pteropod shell condition, locomotion, and long-term population trends in the context of ocean acidification and environmental change
Thecosome pteropods are planktonic mollusks that form aragonite shells and that may experience increased dissolution and other adverse effects due to ocean acidification. This thesis focuses on assessing the possible biological effects of ocean acidification on the shells and locomotion of …

A study of the pelagic gastropods of the Dillon Beach area pteropods and heteropods
… tow in varying numbers and species. Two groups, pteropods and heteropods, were found in the samples. One species of pteropod, Limacina helicina, was the dominant member in all of the tows and occurred during the entire year. Little work has been done on the pelagic gastropods of the North …
