Constraints on the vital effect in coccolithophore and dinoflagellate calcite by oxygen isotopic modification of seawater

In this study, we show that there are independent controls of <sup>18</sup>O/<sup>16</sup>O and <sup>13</sup>C/<sup>12</sup>C fractionation in coccolithophore and dinoflagellate calcite due to the contrasting kinetics of each isotope system. We demonst...
