dc.descriptionThis work was part-supported by a grant from the E. J. Garwood Fund (2011) of the Geological Society of London. J. Dougans (SUERC) and S. Verdegaal (VU Amsterdam) kindly assisted with some of the stable isotope measurements. D. Brasier kindly assisted with fieldwork. Work on Tredomen Quarry calcrete samples was conducted by J.L.M. as part of a PhD thesis funded by the School of Earth and Ocean Sciences, Cardiff University, under the supervision of V. P. Wright and D. Edwards. Core drilling was partly funded by the British Geological Survey. Thanks go to J. Becker (Cardiff University) for isotopic analysis of the Tredomen Quarry calcretes, and to G. Abbott (Newcastle University) and Iso-Analytical Ltd for isotopic analysis of fossil plant material. Three anonymous reviewers and the editor made helpful suggestions that improved the quality of the paper.en
