Light and temperature effects on &delta;<sup>11</sup>B and B / Ca ratios of the zooxanthellate coral <i>Acropora</i> sp.: results from culturing experiments

The boron isotopic composition (&delta;<sup>11</sup>B) of marine carbonates (e.g. corals) is increasingly utilised as a proxy for paleo-pH, with the strong correlation between &delta;<sup>11</sup>B of marine calcifiers and seawater pH now well documented. However, the...
