A quantitative model for describing the within‐population variation in planktonic foraminifer shell chemistry that results from secondary calcification and selective dissolution is presented. The objective is to construct a basis for inferring the chemistries of different shell components and estimating the extent of shell dissolution. Variation is modeled as mixtures of two kinds of shell calcite, a primary calcite that forms the chambers and a secondary calcite that forms crust. Bulk shell chemistries are intermediate between the chemistries of these calcites and lie on mixing lines between them. For two component systems, mass balance relationships can be reformulated as a linear regression and solved for the chemistries of the primary and secondary calcites and for the uncertainties associated with these estimates. To apply this model, one needs measurements of bulk shell chemistries and estimates of the relative proportions of secondary and primary calcites. For most planktonic foraminifer species the proportion of secondary calcite can be estimated from differences in the relationship between shell size and mass before and after crusting. Preliminary results are consistent with previous work showing that secondary calcites are added at depth. However, even deep‐dwelling species appear to grow most of their primary shell in surface waters and some surface‐dwelling species add secondary calcite in the deep ocean. In contrast to the model's simple description of secondary calcification, the variation in chemistry from selective dissolution is more complicated because undissolved shells are themselves mixtures of primary and secondary calcites and therefore present a wide range of initial shell compositions. Nevertheless, the model allows both the compositions of different components to be inferred and the amount of dissolution to be estimated. Preliminary results indicate that dissolution of planktonic foraminifera is apparent nearly 2 km above the foraminifer lysocline and even apparently well‐preserved shells may be over 50% dissolved. |
