    Description: A new matrix-matched reference material has been developed – NFHS-2-NP (NIOZ Foraminifera House Standard-2-Nano-Pellet) – with element mass fractions, and isotope ratios resembling that of natural foraminiferal calcium carbonate. A 180–355 µm size fraction of planktic foraminifera was milled to nano-particles and pressed to pellets. We report reference and information values for mass fractions of forty-six elements measured by six laboratories as well as for 87Sr/86Sr (three laboratories), δ13C, δ18O (five laboratories), and 206,207,208Pb/204Pb isotope ratios (one laboratory) determined by ICP-MS, ICP-OES, MC-ICP-MS, IRMS, WD-XRF and TIMS. Inter- and intra-pellet elemental homogeneity was tested using multiple LA-ICP-MS analyses in two laboratories applying spot sizes of 60 and 70 µm. The LA-ICP-MS results for most of the elements relevant as proxies for palaeoclimate research show RSD values 〈 3%, demonstrating a satisfactory homogeneous composition. Homogeneity of 87Sr/86Sr ratios of the pellet was verified by repeated LA-MC-ICP-MS by two laboratories. Information values are reported for Pb isotope ratios and δ13C, δ18O values. The homogeneity for these isotope systems remains to be tested by LA-MC-ICP-MS and SIMS. Overall, our results confirm the suitability of NFHS-2-NP for calibration or monitoring the quality of in situ geochemical techniques.

    Description: We report growth of two large benthic photosymbiont-bearing foraminifera, Heterostegina depressa and Amphistegina lessonii, cultured at four different ocean acidification scenarios (400, 700, 1000 and 2200 ppm atmospheric pCO2). Using the alkalinity anomaly technique, we calculated the amount of calcium carbonate precipitated during the incubation. The chamber addition rates for each of the conditions were also determined.
