Geochemical proxies measured in the carbonate skeleton of tropical coral Porites sp. have
commonly been used to reconstruct sea surface temperature (SST) and more recently …

CO2-water–basaltic glass batch experiments were performed in order to study the feasibility
of low temperature CO2 sequestration into basalts including the key reactions and chemical …

Here a new analytical methodology is described for measuring the isotopic composition of
boron in foraminifera using multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry …

In this study, we present first results from an ongoing investigation on the stable barium (Ba)
isotope fractionation in the natural barium cycle. Stable Ba isotope signatures of …

Dymond et al.(1992) have recently proposed an algorithm to reconstruct paleoproductivity
from biogenic Ba (bio‐Ba) accumulation rates in sediments. Their equation is based on …

Despite the importance of boron as a proxy of past ocean pH, the crystal-chemical factors
controlling its incorporation in the structure of calcium carbonates are still poorly understood …

The 11 B/10 B ratio in calcite and aragonite is an important proxy of oceanic water pH.
However, the physico-chemical mechanisms underpinning this approach are still poorly …

We report a new method for HR‐ICP‐MS based accurate and precise B/Ca determination
from low mass natural carbonates (≤ 5 µg CaCO3), utilizing a mixed acid matrix (0.1 M …

Barium isotope fractionation during calcite and aragonite inorganic precipitation was studied
in mixed flow reactors as a function of precipitation rate at 25° C and pH= 6.3±0.1. The …

Describing, characterizing and interpreting the nearly infinite variety of carbonate rocks are
conundrums–intricate and difficult problems having only conjectural answers–that have …
