The purpose of this research is to further develop the use of encrusting and free-living forms (i.e. rhodoliths) of crustose coralline red algae (CCA) as geochemical proxy sources for paleoenvironmental and paleoclimate reconstructions. Rhodoliths (Lithothamnion sp.) from the Gulf of Panama (GOP), Panama were grown in a microcosm experiment to evaluate growth patterns and rates. Previous researchers concluded GOP rhodoliths grew annual bands and formed as a result of temperature and salinity fluctuations associated with upwelling and non-upwelling seasons. Our study shows that the rhodoliths can grow highly variable amounts of growth bands (n = 0-20) in <6 months and that the more dominant controls on growth are light and axial branch orien...
