A novel salinity proxy based on Na incorporation into foraminiferal calcite [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2013 Salinity and temperature determine seawater density, and differences in both thereby control global thermohaline circulation. Whereas numerous proxies have been calibrated and applied to reconstruct temperature, a direct and independent proxy for ...

Salinity control on Na incorporation into calcite tests of the planktonic foraminifera Trilobatus sacculifer – evidence from culture experiments and surface sediments [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2018 The quantitative reconstruction of past seawater salinity has yet to be achieved, and the search for a direct and independent salinity proxy is ongoing. Recent culture and field studies show a significant positive correlation of Na∕Ca with salinity in

The effect of salt stress on yield and accumulation of some minerals in two salt-tolerant and susceptible onion cultivars [PDF]
Desert, 2021 Salt stress is a major agro-environmental constraint on crop productivity. In this study, the effect of different levels of salinity stress (0,25,50,75, and 100mM NaCl) on the accumulation of some ions in two salt-tolerant and susceptible onion cultivars
