Title Biocalcification of aragonite by tellinid bivalve Macoma birmanica (Philippi) on the tidal mudflat in the Sundarban mangrove forest, north-east coast of India
 
Creator Saha, A
Jana, T K
 
Description 404-407
The annual
biocalcification of aragonite by Macoma binnanica was found to be 314.3
g m-2y-1 which is 2.5 times higher than biomass
production and almost equal to the elimination rate, 311.4 g m-2y-1.
Rapid response of this biogenous

aragonite to the processes of
neutralization of the anthropogenic carbon dioxide through its dissolution was
observed, which was almost close to its maximum capacity.
