ABSTRACT Oxygen stable isotope (δ18O) analysis of marine biogenic carbonates is widely used to study the temperature at which hard parts precipitated. This technique enables investigation environmental conditions experienced by carbonate-shelled organisms throughout their life. We this approach on four bivalve species from Coralline Crag Formation (Early Pliocene; UK), where warm- and cold-associated co-occur in Ramsholt Member. Our results reveal species-specific differences reconstructed...
Sclerochronological data from archaeological shell middens provides crucial information about past environments and subsistence practices of coastal human populations. These studies rely on a strong knowledge species-specific growth patterns, as it is the main driver quantity quality recorded in biogenic carbonates. The limpet Patella vulgata highly represented eastern Atlantic middens. In this study, micro-increment formation its was investigated through situ marking experiments, using...
