In Situ Mg/Ca Measurements on Foraminifera: Comparison Between Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry and Wavelength‐Dispersive X‐Ray Spectroscopy by Electron Probe Microanalyzer

In Situ Mg/Ca Measurements on Foraminifera: Comparison Between Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry and Wavelength‐Dispersive X‐Ray Spectroscopy by Electron Probe Microanalyzer

Abstract We present a comparison of two different techniques: Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (LA‐ICP‐MS) and wavelength‐dispersive X‐Ray Spectroscopy by electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA) for obtaining Mg/Ca ratios in individual foraminifera shells. The goal is to asses...
