Fig. 2. SEM images of the various microcrystalline calcite reactants used in the dissolution experiments. A) Synthetic calcite (Series 1–4) composed of rhombic crystals. B) Calcite stabilized from aragonitic coral (Series 5) composed of polyhedral crystals. C) Calcite stabilized from single-crystal aragonite (Series 6) composed of euhedral rhombic crystals. D) Natural calcite from a drill core of Lower Cretaceous limestone (Series 7 and 8) composed of polyhedral crystals with some curved edges and corners.
