Individual shells were analyzed in situ for their magnesium/calcium (Mg/Ca) ratios by Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Mass Spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), and for their stable oxygen isotope composition (d18O) by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). Hydrographic measurements reveal that the water column at sample location is isothermal and isohaline during the month prior to collection. The purpose of this project was to determine potential differences in the Mg/Ca or d18O composition of the lamellar calcite, formed and the upper water column, and the crust calcite, precipitated in deeper waters but at the same temperature and salinity than the lamellar calcite.

Included are single shell magnesium/calcium (Mg/Ca) results, as well as secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) stable oxygen isotope (d18O) spots on single shells. Hydrographic measurements reveal the study area to be isothermal and isohaline during the month prior to collection. The purpose of project was to determine if there is any geochemical differences in Mg/Ca or d18O between the crust and ontogenetic calcite from shells that grew in isothermal/isohaline waters.

Table of samples and full species counts for all BR and CD samples (including the dissolution zone). Counts are number of individuals counted in each sample. For totals <200, one full picking tray was counted. Separation of tables denote location of CIE based on bulk carbonate δ13C. Table S2. Summary of diversity, % fragmentation, and P/B ratios (presented in %) based on counts at CamDor and Bass River. Pre-CIE and CIE samples noted. Table S3. Table of samples and species groups for Bass River and CamDor samples that were included in the multivariate analysis. Counts are number of individuals from each species group counted in each sample. Table S4. Table of sample depths that correspond to the sample numbers in Figure 9 for CamDor, Bass River, and Site 1209. Depths are in meters.

Yet, understanding how their environment shapes diversity within species and across taxa is limited by a paucity of observations of heritability and life history. Here, we present observations of asexual reproduction, morphologic plasticity, and ontogeny in the planktic foraminifer Neogloboquadrina pachyderma in laboratory culture. Our results demonstrate that planktic foraminifera reproduce both sexually and asexually and demonstrate extensive phenotypic plasticity in response to nonheritable factors. These two processes fundamentally explain the rapid spatial and temporal response of even imperceptibly low populations of planktic foraminifera to optimal conditions and the diversity and ubiquity of these species across the range of environmental conditions that occur ...
