  6. Energization?

  7. The matrix approach Light vs. pCO Light vs. pCO 2 380 μ atm 380 1000 1000 μ atm atm atm 50 μ mol 50 -2 s -1 mol photon hotons m -2 -1 300 300 μ mol -2 s -1 mol photon hotons m -2 -1 • Acclimation data ( μ , POC, PIC) • Physiology (C i acquisition, light reactions) • Transcriptomics (gene expression)

  8. Phenomenology Rokitta & Rost (2012) • PIC production drops (especially under low light!) • POC production is boosted (especially under low light!) • TPC production is insensitive

  9. Physiology Rokitta & Rost (2012) • More POC despite less pigmentation and O 2 evolution  Improved energy efficiency under OA

  10. Gene expression?

  16. Conclusions • OA causes a shunting of carbon from calcification towards biomass production • OA-Responses are modulated by energy availability and typically attenuated by high light • OA affects cellular signaling and the redox hub and thereby re-wires carbon flux networks
