Shell cross sections of the bivalve Crassostrea gigas collected from Little Swanport, Tasmania

Petrological and some geochemical analysis methods require the sample to be made into a thin or thick section. This record provides a series of shell cross-sectional images and also outlines the process involved in thin/thick section preparation. \n\nThis is part of a project that assesses the viabi...

Description
Summary:Petrological and some geochemical analysis methods require the sample to be made into a thin or thick section. This record provides a series of shell cross-sectional images and also outlines the process involved in thin/thick section preparation. \n\nThis is part of a project that assesses the viability of interpretating environmental records (such as temperature, salinity and heavy metal pollution) from shell geochemistry through trace element and isotopic analysis. http://www.marine.csiro.au/csquares/index.html -
