At the Earth's surface, calcium (Ca) is a critical element at a variety of scales: it is soluble in
natural waters, a biological nutrient, and a major constituent of the dominant mineral sink for …

Coccolithophores are the most abundant calcifying phytoplankton in the ocean. These tiny
primary producers have an important role in the global carbon cycle, substantially …

The nine editions of Stable Isotope Geochemistry have appeared over a time span of nearly
50 years. The first edition (1973) appeared as a slim book of 135 pages. Due to the rapid …

Four strains of the coccolithophore E. huxleyi (RCC1212, RCC1216, RCC1238, RCC1256)
were grown in dilute batch culture at four CO 2 levels ranging from~ 200 μatm to~ 1200 …

Abstract The Ca, Mg, O, and C isotopic and trace elemental compositions of marine
limestones and dolostones from ODP Site 1196A, which range in depth (∼ 58 to 627 mbsf) …

Although the consequences of global warming in aquatic ecosystems are only beginning to
be revealed, a key to forecasting the impact on aquatic communities is an understanding of …

Ca isotope fractionation during inorganic calcite formation was experimentally studied by
spontaneous precipitation at various precipitation rates (1.8< logR< 4.4 μmol/m2/h) and …

Calcium-isotope ratios (δ44/42Ca) were measured in carbonate-rich sedimentary sections
deposited during Oceanic Anoxic Events 1a (Early Aptian) and 2 (Cenomanian–Turonian) …

This survey of magnesium stable isotope compositions in marine biogenic aragonite and
calcite includes samples from corals, sclerosponges, benthic porcelaneous and planktonic …

Global ocean biogeochemistry models currently employed in climate change projections
use highly simplified representations of pelagic food webs. These food webs do not …
