Boron in Foraminiferal Calcite as an Indicator of Seawater Carbonate Chemistry

Foraminifera are unicellular organisms with a wide marine distribution. Many species secrete carbonate tests whose physical and chemical nature reflect the seawater conditions in which they grow. Thus, fossil tests preserved on the sea floor represent an archive that may be used to investigate the c...
