The triple oxygen isotope composition of Precambrian chert
The temperature and chemistry of early seawater have both been inferred from the isotopic composition of Precambrian chert (SiO2), a precipitated mineral formed on or within marine sediments. The O of chert shows a robust quasi-linear increase through time - a signal that has been interpreted in a n...
