Technical note: A universal method for measuring the thickness of microscopic calcite crystals, based on bidirectional circular polarization
<p>Coccoliths are major contributors to the particulate inorganic carbon in the ocean that is a key part of the carbon cycle. The coccoliths are a few micrometres in length and weigh a few picogrammes. Their birefringence characteristics in polarized optical microscopy have been used to estima...
