Mg-Ca, B-Ca and U-Ca in shells of benthic foraminifers - tracers of temperature and seawater carbonate chemistry

Raitzsch, Markus (Univ. Bremen, 2008)

Mg/Ca ratios in benthic foraminiferal shells are frequently used in paleoceanographic studies to estimate past bottom water temperatures. Apart from temperature, other factors may exert additional influences on foraminiferal ...
