“…Laboratory studies on the incorporation of B into calcium carbonate remain limited, and few potentially controlling factors (e.g. temperature, carbonate chemistry, growth rate etc) have been tested (Kitano et al, 1978;Sen et al 1994;Hemming et al, 1995;Hobbs and Reardon, 1999;Sanyal et al, 2000;Xiao et al, 2008;He et al, 2013;Gabitov et al, 2014;Mavromatis et al, 2015;Uchikawa et al, 2015). Critically only one study has characterized the carbonate chemistry during aragonite precipitation (Mavromatis et al, 2015).…”
