A review of the oxygen isotope composition of lacustrine diatom silica for palaeoclimate reconstruction
MJ Leng, PA Barker - Earth-Science Reviews, 2006 - Elsevier
Diatom silica (frustules) are a form of biogenic opal and contain oxygen isotopes that are
being increasingly used in palaeoclimate studies. Frustules are comprised of an inner …
