Microfacies Analysis of the Reefal Limestone, Marah Formation, East Borneo, Indonesia
Miau Baru, Kongbeng in East Borneo is a relatively narrow area with complex geological features. The abundance of larger benthic foraminifera shows diversity in the carbonate succession of the Marah Formation but previously has less attention ...

Seasonal data on Rose Bengal stained foraminifera in the head of Kongsfjorden, Svalbard
Current ‘Atlantification’ of the Arctic Ocean affects benthic communities leading to the changes in their structure and abundance. Such areas as Svalbard that are seasonally affected by Atlantic and Arctic water masses may give a possibility to ...

ABSTRACT Since 2000, archaeological excavations have brought to light the sanctuary of Athena in Castro (Apulia, Italy), including terracotta roofs dated between the 6th and 4th centuries bce. Based on their morphological and stylistic features, it is suggested that the terracotta items were manufactured in the Greek colony of Taras (modern Taranto ...

Tubular agglutinated foraminifera as indicators of organic carbon flux [PDF]
The dimensions of tubular agglutinated foraminifera such as Rhizammina and Rhabdammina respond in a predictable manner to changes in the flux of organic carbon to the sea floor. In both the modern western North Atlantic and in an ancient example (the K/

This review presents an investigation of the evolution of the Baltic Sea basin and its connections through the Eemian Stage, based upon sequences of marine and associated deposits from the White Sea to the Southwest Baltic, via the Karelian channel. Pollen analyses, foraminiferal and ostracod analyses provide the evolution of relative sea‐level change,
