Mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) metabarcoding of Foraminifera communities using taxon-specific primers [PDF]
Foraminifera are a species-rich phylum of rhizarian protists that are highly abundant in most marine environments. Molecular methods such as metabarcoding have revealed a high, yet undescribed diversity of Foraminifera. However, so far only one molecular

COMMUNITY STRUCTURE OF BENTHIC FORAMINIFERA IN EASTERN WATERS OF SEGARA ANAK LAGOON IN CILACAP
Benthic foraminifera are types of organisms that are sensitive to environmental changes, so they are often used as a bioindicator for aquatic environmental conditions.

Distribution patterns of foraminifera in paleotsunami layers: A review
The presence of foraminifera is one of the main criteria for identifying paleotsunami. However, many paleotsunami studies reported the absence of foraminifera, even in the very young paleotsunami layers.

Smaller benthic foraminifera Analysis of Kudat Formation, Kudat, Sabah: Preliminary Interpretation. [PDF]
Small benthic foraminifera have been fully extracted from the mudstone of Kudat Formation, Kudat, Sabah. The Kudat Formation comprise thick-bedded, quartzose to feldspathic, locally calcareous sandstone, an overall abundance of lignitic and ...

Impact of carbonate saturation on large Caribbean benthic foraminifera assemblages [PDF]
Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide and its dissolution in seawater have reduced ocean pH and carbonate ion concentrations, with potential implications on calcifying organisms.

Biostratigraphy, microfacies analysis and depositional environment of the Bartonian–Priabonian limestones in Shan-Abad anticline (west of Rafsanjan) [PDF]
The Middle–Late Eocene carbonate deposits have developed in the Shan-Abad anticline as a thin belt among volcanic rocks. The nummulite banks are one of the most interesting deposits in this belt and composed of nummulite accumulations in the form of ...

Foraminifera are shelled single-celled protists that are found in all marine environments. Benthic foraminifera either live in sediments or attach to surfaces on the seafloor. Understanding the distribution and ecological response of benthic foraminifera

Planktonic foraminifera are key to understanding paleoclimate and plankton evolution, but their origins are unclear. Here, the authors use a molecular clock to suggest that benthic foraminifera dispersed in plankton and renew planktonic foraminifera ...
