Sodium-Calcium Ratios in the Planktic Foraminifera Trilobatus Sacculifer as a Proxy for Sea Surface Salinity
Recent culture and field studies have found a significant positive correlation between seawater salinity and the incorporation of sodium into foraminiferal calcite, suggesting a potential new proxy for reconstructing past changes in sea surface salinity (SSS) (Mezger et al., 2016 and Bertlich et al....
