Shaping calcium carbonate: Biological and environmental controls on polymorphism<\/strong>
Calcium carbonate (CaCO\u2083) is among the most widespread chemical compounds on Earth. Its multiple forms \u2013 calcite<\/a>, aragonite<\/a>, and vaterite<\/a> \u2013 have distinct properties. Many organisms utilize CaCO\u2083 for biomineralized<\/a> structures, modulating its polymorphism<\/a> via physiological<\/a> processes. This article synthesizes current knowledge on abiotic and biological mechanisms governing the formation of CaCO\u2083 polymorphs (ocean chemistry, physiology). Strategies used by organisms to regulate polymorphism could inform the sustainable<\/a> fabrication of materials with tailored properties.<\/p>
