Stable isotope and sclerochronologic analysis of environmental and temporal resolution in modern and fossil bivalve mollusk shells
Organisms that grow by skeletal accretion contain a geochemical record of environmental conditions--they are, in effect, biological chart recorders. Thus, shell-bearing organisms are an important source of data on modern and ancient environments. Geochemical analysis of shell material sampled along...
