Ikaite nucleation at 35 °C challenges the use of glendonite as a paleotemperature indicator

Glendonites have been found worldwide in marine sediments from the Neoproterozoic Era to the Quaternary Period. The precursor of glendonite, ikaite (CaCO(3) · 6H(2)O), is metastable and has only been observed in nature at temperatures <7 °C. Therefore, glendonites in the sedimentary record are co...
