Mn∕Ca intra- and inter-test variability in the benthic foraminifer <i>Ammonia tepida</i>
The adaptation of some benthic foraminiferal species to low-oxygen conditions provides the prospect of using the chemical composition of their tests as proxies for bottom water oxygenation. Manganese may be particularly suitable as such a geochemical proxy because this redox element is soluble in...
