Reconstruction of deglacial sea surface temperature in the tropical Pacific from selective analysis of a fossil coral

Journal Article - in OSTI.gov collection Allison, N. ; Finch, A.A. ; Tudhope, A.W. ; ... July 2010 - Geophys. Res. Lett.

The Sr/Ca of coral skeletons demonstrates potential as an indicator of sea surface temperatures (SSTs). However, the glacial-interglacial SST ranges predicted from Sr/Ca of fossil corals are usually higher than from other marine proxies. We observed infilling of secondary aragonite, characterized by high Sr/Ca ratios, along intraskeletal pores of a fossil coral from Papua New Guinea that grew during the penultimate deglaciation (130 {+-} 2 ka). Selective microanalysis of unaltered areas of the fossil coral indicates that SSTs at {approx}130 ka were {le} 1 C cooler than at present in contrast with bulk measurements (combining infilled and unaltered areas) whichmore »« less

Amorphous calcium carbonate particles form coral skeletons

Journal Article Mass, Tali ; Giuffre, Anthony J. ; Sun, Chang -Yu ; ... August 2017 - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Do corals form their skeletons by precipitation from solution or by attachment of amorphous precursor particles as observed in other minerals and biominerals? The classical model assumes precipitation in contrast with observed “vital effects,” that is, deviations from elemental and isotopic compositions at thermodynamic equilibrium. Here, we show direct spectromicroscopy evidence in Stylophora pistillata corals that two amorphous precursors exist, one hydrated and one anhydrous amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC); that these are formed in the tissue as 400-nm particles; and that they attach to the surface of coral skeletons, remain amorphous for hours, and finally, crystallize into aragonite (CaCO ₃).more »« less

Growth rate of a deep-sea coral using sup 210 Pb and other isotopes

Journal Article - in OSTI.gov collection Druffel, E.R.M. ; King, L.I. ; Belastock, R.A. ; ... May 1990 - Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta; (USA)

A deep-sea coral was studied to determine its growth rate and to reconstruct time histories of isotope distributions in the deep ocean. The specimen was collected at a depth of 600 m off Little Bahama Banks using the Deep Submergence Vehicle (DSV) Alvin. The growth rate of the calcitic coral trunk was determined using excess {sup 210}Pb measured in concentric bands. Excess {sup 210}Pb was found in the outer half of the coral's radius, and a growth rate of 0.11 {plus minus} 0.02 mm/a is calculated. Assuming a constant growth rate during formation of the entire trunk, an age ofmore »« less
