Experimental and computational studies on foraminiferal calcite
In this thesis, the effect of dissolution on the chemistry and structure of perforate planktonic foraminiferal tests was investigated. Atomistic simulations were undertaken to study the energetics of magnesium ions in calcite and their structural ordering in the {104} surface. Shell mass, δ<sup&g...
