Copper incorporation in foraminiferal calcite: results from culturing experiments

A partition coefficient for copper (D<sub>Cu</sub>) in foraminiferal calcite has been determined by culturing individuals of two benthic species under controlled laboratory conditions. The partition coefficient of a trace element (TE) is an emperically determined relation...
