Salinity was measured with a benchtop salinometer (Orion StarTM A12, Thermo Scientific), which was calibrated using MilliQ water and known salinity CRM seawater before each sample analysis. Calcium ([Ca2+]) concentration was measured using automatic potentiometric titration with ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid (EGTA), with a precision of ±0.2% [59]. A Metrohm® Titrando calcium-selective electrode on a titration system (Metrohm Titrando 888) was used to detect the endpoint.  Benchtop Salinometer (OrionStar A12, Thermo Scientific)
