Can the pattern of foraminiferal intratest trace element variations be explained by Ca dilution during biomineralization?
Recently Hathorne et al. (2009) documented large intratest trace element (TE) variations in planktonic foraminifera from a single sediment trap sample that could not be explained by variations in water column properties. The laser ablation ICP-MS depth profiles of trace elements through the test wal...
