Calcite precipitation by marine bacteria∗
Abstract
Calcite precipitation occurs when trimethylamino‐N‐oxide and medium are added to surface waters collected above Lodestone and Keeper Reefs of the Great Barrier Reef. The calcium content of the water was initially 430 ppm. After 30 days incubation at 28 °C, the pH had risen and only 90 ppm of calcium remained in solution. The precipitate was analyzed by X‐ray diffraction and was found to be calcite. During anaerobic incubation of the pure cultures of calcite precipitating bacteria in seawater containing TMAO and medium the pH rose rapidly, the Eh fell quickly, but the precipitation of calcite followed more slowly. Calcite precipitation also occurred aerobically. The binding of 45Ca by bacteria was demonstrated. 14C‐carbonate resulting from bacterial action on 14C‐aspartate was found to be present in the precipitated calcite.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
