Scientific paper

Surface seawater off several Bermuda beaches and in the upper few inches of intertidal sands is several-fold supersaturated with calcium carbonate. Precipitation of calcium carbonate and cementation of these sands is prevented by protective coatings. The depression of the pH by the oxidation of organic matter causes solution of calcium carbonate from deeper sands of the intertidal zone.
