Influence of marine biochemical cycles on seasonal variation of Ba/Ca in the near-shore coral Cyphastrea, Rat Island, southern Great Barrier Reef

SrCa maxima & minima matched with monthly Reyn-Smith OISST v2 minima & maxima. Cross-checked with luminescence and growth bands. Time series interpolated to monthly resolution.

Ablation used a rectangular 40 x 400 μm slit, a 40 mm per second span speed, 5 Hz repetition rate, 50 MJ of energy, and a 50% partially reflecting mirror. NIST 614 & in-house pressed powder coral standard.

SrCa-SST calibration available, although no SrCa values available. Calibrations only used in supporting figure. Reyn-Smith OISST. OLS. SrCa = 13.13 - 0.15 * SST. R2=0.62
