Project: A combined boron isotope, pH microelectrode and pH-sensitive dye approach to constraining acid/base chemistry in the calcifying fluids of corals (CoralCalcifyFluid_pH)

Effect of temperature and polymorph mineral solubility (high-Mg calcite > aragonite > low-Mg calcite) on average modelled dissolution rate over ΩA = 0.2 - 5.0 (using ΩA increments of 0.2) at 10.1 °C (± 0.02) and 25.0 °C (± 0.02).  Results ranked by magnitude of temperature effect on average dissolution rate. ΩA = saturation state of seawater with respect to aragonite.
