Abstract
Pacific Ocean water, on the average, appears to be slightly supersaturated at all temperatures with hydroxyapatite and carbonate fluorapatite. Water above 14°C is saturated with calcite, whereas water above 20°C is saturated with aragonite.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
