Estimating the particulate organic carbon (POC) export flux from the upper ocean is fundamental for understanding the efficiency of the biological carbon pump driven by sinking particles in the oceans
Planktic foraminifera and shelled pteropods are some of the major producers of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) in the ocean. Their calcitic (foraminifera) and aragonitic (pteropods) shells are particularly

The mass of well-preserved calcite in planktonic foraminifera shells provides an indication of the calcification potential of the surface ocean. Here we report the shell weight of 8 different abundant
