Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental investigation into partitioning of stable isotopes between scallop (Pecten maximus) shell calcite and sea water
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that shell depletions of Pecten maximus can be explained by the difference in solution carbonate chemistry at the site of mineralisation in the extrapallial fluid (EPF) as compared to that of the external sea water medium, from which the EPF is isolated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fingerprinting Blue Carbon: Rationale and Tools to Determine the Source of Organic Carbon in Marine Depositional Environments
Nathan R. Geraldi,Alejandra Ortega,Oscar Serrano,Peter I. Macreadie,Catherine E. Lovelock,Catherine E. Lovelock,Dorte Krause-Jensen,Hilary Kennedy,Paul S. Lavery,Michael L. Pace,Joeri Kaal,Carlos M. Duarte +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review and critique current methods and the potential of nascent methods to track the provenance and fate of organic carbon, including: bulk isotopes, compound-specific isotope, biomarkers, molecular properties, and environmental DNA (eDNA).
Journal ArticleDOI
Decomposition of mangrove roots: Effects of location, nutrients, species identity and mix in a Kenyan forest
Mark Huxham,Joseph Kipkorir Sigi Lang'at,Fredrick Tamooh,Hilary Kennedy,Maurizio Mencuccini,Martin W. Skov,James Gitundu Kairo +6 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that N availability was an important determinant of decomposition, since differences between species reflected the initial C: N ratios.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inter- and intra-specimen variability masks reliable temperature control on shell Mg/Ca ratios in laboratory- and field-cultured Mytilus edulis and Pecten maximus (bivalvia)
TL;DR: Shell Mg/Ca ratio data are reported for the calcite of two bivalve species, Mytilus edulis and Pecten maximus, which were grown in laboratory culturing experiments at controlled and constant aquarium seawater temperatures over a range from ~10 to ~20°C.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sources of organic matter in seagrass-colonized sediments: A stable isotope study of the silt and clay fraction from Posidonia oceanica meadows in the western Mediterranean.
TL;DR: The origin of sedimentary organic matter in 22 sandy beds of Posidonia oceanica (L) Delile on the coast of the Iberian Peninsula and the Balearic Islands in the northwestern Mediterranean Sea was investigated using natural abundance stable isotope measurements of carbon and nitrogen (δ13C and δ15N) in fine (
