A reappraisal of the vital effect in cultured benthic foraminifer <I>Bulimina marginata</I> on Mg/Ca values: assessing temperature uncertainty relationships
The reconstruction of past temperatures is often achieved through measuring the Mg/Ca value of foraminiferal test carbonate. The diversity in foraminiferal Mg/Ca–temperature calibrations suggests that there is also a biological control on this proxy. This study presents a new Mg/Ca–temperature calib...
