Biomineralisation process which is the induction of the precipitation of a mineral by an
organism, generates hard tissues such as bones, teeth, otoliths and shells …

This paper explores the past and potential contribution of archaeology to marine historical
ecology. The primary focus is European fishing of marine and diadromous taxa, with global …

Horizon scanning is an increasingly common strategy to identify key research needs and
frame future agendas in science. Here, we present the results of the first such exercise for …

Given the scope and rapid rate of modern global environmental change (IPCC, 2013), it is
necessary to provide a framework to evaluate changes prior to the instrumental period. By …

Understanding past environmental change through high-resolution palaeoenvironmental
proxy reconstructions provides crucial baselines for understanding global environmental …

Geochemical signatures from biogenic carbonates are being increasingly employed as
palaeoenvironmental proxies. In turn, many of these proxy archives including mollusc shells …

The lack of monthly-resolved paleoenvironmental records beyond the instrumental era
hinders our full understanding of global climate dynamics. Tridacna gigas shells have a …

Elemental analysis of biogeochemical archives is an established technique used to study
climate in a range of applications, including ocean circulation, glacial/interglacial climates …

Aquatic organisms are natural data loggers and record chemical variations within hardened
accretionary structures like shells and teeth. Chemical sclerochronology is the study of these …

High-resolution stable-isotope ratio data (δ 18 O, δ 13 C) were used to study growth
strategies of two bivalve species, Pecten jacobaeus (calcitic shell) and Glycymeris pilosa …
