Very pleased to see our new paper now out in GSA Bulletin. 'Morphological patterns of (sub)recent marine aragonite crystals in transects from the shoreline to open coastal waters of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates' Great work by lead author Yisi (Christine) Zhong. doi.org/10.1130/B389...
Morphological overview of flat-terminated aragonite crystals. (A) Schematic model documenting that polysynthetic twins form
tabular aragonites. Yellow arrows indicate twinning boundaries. (B) Schematic model showing that hexagonal aragonite crystals developed
from triple-growth twins. In type I, one crystal combined with two symmetrically equivalent twins; type II demonstrates intergrowth and
penetration of triple aragonite. Yellow arrows indicate re-entrant angles along perimeters of hexagonal columns, which represent twin
boundaries.
