Calcite crystal growth orientation: implications for trace metal uptake into coccoliths
Inorganic calcite precipitation experiments were conducted to determine whether inducing specific orientations of calcite crystal growth can cause the enrichment of cations larger than Ca. Malonic acid (CH2(COOH)2), a di-carboxylic acid, was used to poison growth on acute kink sites, promoting growt...
