The effects of growth phase and salinity on the hydrogen isotopic composition of alkenones produced by coastal haptophyte algae
The isotopic fractionation of hydrogen during the biosynthesis of alkenones produced by marine haptophyte algae has been shown to depend on salinity and, as such, the hydrogen isotopic composition of alkenones is emerging as a palaeosalinity proxy. The relationship between fractionation and salinity...
