(CaCO₃) tests are produced in the photic zone of the oceans (green circles). Upon death, those tests escaping dissolution near the surface settle, along with clay materials. In seawater, a dissolution boundary is formed as a result of temperature, pressure, and depth, and is known as the saturation horizon. Above this horizon, waters are supersaturated and CaCO₃ tests are largely preserved. Below it, waters are undersaturated, because of both
