Active modulation of the calcifying fluid carbonate chemistry (δ(11)B, B/Ca) and seasonally invariant coral calcification at sub-tropical limits

Coral calcification is dependent on both the supply of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and the up-regulation of pH in the calcifying fluid (cf). Using geochemical proxies (δ(11)B, B/Ca, Sr/Ca, Li/Mg), we show seasonal changes in the pH(cf) and DIC(cf) for Acropora yongei and Pocillopora damicornis...
