Abstract:
This project aims to test the model of global „carbonate hypersaturation „ of Silurian seawater during prominent d13C anomalies at three paleo-continents based on first d44Ca (carbonate and apatite) records, and to generate a first paleotemperature (d180) records for middle paleo-latitudes.
