Using the Stable Isotopic Composition of Heliconoides inflatus Pteropod Shells to Determine Calcification Depth in the Cariaco Basin

Pteropods have been hailed as the “canary in the coal mine” for ocean acidification, however, questions remain about their life history, habitat, and the environmental parameters that the isotopic composition of their shells reflect. In order to use pteropods as recorders of ocean chemistry, it is f...
