The geochemistry of carbonate diagenesis: The past, present and future

PK Swart - Sedimentology, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Stable carbon and oxygen isotopes (δ18O and δ13C values) and trace elements have been
applied to the study of diagenesis of carbonate rocks for over 50 years. As valuable as these …
