    COVER: All bony marine fish (teleosts) continuously excrete fine-grained carbonates as a waste product of normal physiological functioning. In some areas, these carbonates are produced at rates relevant to carbonate sediment production budgets—especially in warm-water environments that support high fish biomass, such as coral reefs. See “Reef fish carbonate production assessments highlight regional variation in sedimentary significance” by Salter et al., p. 699–702.
