As part of the Multi-proxy Approach for the Reconstruction of the Glacial Ocean (MARGO)
incentive, published and unpublished temperature reconstructions for the Last Glacial …

Cooling of Earth's climate over the Cenozoic has been accompanied by large changes in
the magnesium and calcium content of seawater whose origins remain enigmatic. The …

The Sr/Ca ratio of coccoliths was recently proposed as a potential indicator of past growth
rates of coccolithophorids, marine algae, which play key roles in both the global carbonate …

The relationship between potential elemental proxies (Mg/Ca, Sr/Ca and Mn/Ca ratios) and
environmental factors was investigated for the bivalve Pecten maximus in a detailed field …

Abstract Although Sr/Ca ratios in abiogenic calcite are strongly controlled by precipitation
rates, such a kinetic effect has never been demonstrated in calcitic bivalve shells. Therefore …

The Mesozoic evolution of calcareous nannoplankton is here compared to global changes
in the Earth system to derive possible causal links between biosphere–geosphere …

Deep-sea pore fluids are potential archives of ancient seawater chemistry. However, the
primary signal recorded in pore fluids is often overprinted by diagenetic processes. Recent …

In many marine biogeographic realms, bioeroding sponges dominate the internal bioerosion
of calcareous substrates such as mollusc beds and coral reef framework. They …

Anhydrous carbonate and sulphate-bearing solids are formed on Earth under very different
environmental conditions and are the most abundant constituents in so-called chemical …

The development of calcification by the coccolithophores had a profound impact on ocean
carbon cycling, but the evolutionary steps leading to the formation of these complex …
