Figure 2

Map of world distribution of % Mg in calcite in coralline algae from four regions (North Atlantic Ocean, Indo-Pacific Ocean, Adriatic/Mediterrean Sea, Caribbean and Southwest Atlantic Ocean; upper left in the figure) ranging from 4 to 33% Mg in calcite; a detailed map of % Mg in calcite in coralline algae species analyzed in this study along the Brazilian shelf (upper righ in the figure); mean % Mg in calcite in coralline algae and standard deviation in several regions of world. Different letters are used to indicate statistically differences (p < 0.05) obtained through post-hoc Dunn’s test after the Kruskal–Wallis analysis (bellow in the figure). Both maps maps were obtained from ESRI database (https://services.arcgisonline.com/arcgis/rest/services/Canvas/World_Dark_Gray_Base/MapServer) and the coordinates from the mineralogy analysis were standardized using EPSG: 3857-WGS 84/Pseudo-Mercator. Maps were produced with QGIS v3.4 (https://www.qgis.org).
