Geochemical signatures and nanomechanical properties of echinoid tests from nearshore habitats of Florida: environmental and physiological controls on echinoid biomineralization by Przemysław Gorzelak, Luis Torres Jr., Dorota Kołbuk, Tobias B. Grun, Michał Kowalewski

“…In contrast, bulk Mg/Ca, strontium/calcium (Sr/Ca), sulfur/calcium (S/Ca) and lithium/calcium (Li/Ca) ratios exhibited notable differences between the three regions, indicating that distribution of these elements can be at least partly influenced by environmental factors such as salinity. However, such patterns were highly variable across taxa and regions, indicating that both environmental and physiological factors influenced geochemical signatures to varying degrees, depending on the species and environmental setting. …”
