Phase heterogeneity in carbonate production by marine fish influences their roles in sediment generation and the inorganic carbon cycle
Abstract Marine teleost fish are important carbonate producers in neritic and oceanic settings. However, the fates of the diverse carbonate phases (i.e., mineral and amorphous forms of CaCO3) they produce, and their roles in sediment production and marine inorganic carbon cycling, remain poorly unde...
