The Year 2000 classification of the agglutinated foraminifera
A reclassification of the agglutinated foraminifera (subclass Textulariia) is presented, consisting of four orders, 17 suborders, 27 superfamilies, 107 families, 125 subfamilies, and containing a total of 747 valid genera.

Morphologic, biogeographic and ontogenetic investigation of Mid-Pliocene menardellids (planktonic foraminifera) [PDF]
The definition of planktonic foraminifera species remains a major challenge, despite their central place in biostratigraphy and paleoceanography. During the last decade, combined outcomes of molecular and morphometric studies have brought to the light ...

Anthropogenic Carbon Isotope Signals in North Atlantic Water Masses at 48°N
Abstract Deep‐water masses are formed in the North‐Atlantic, making studies of δ13C of dissolved CO2 in this region key to monitor and understand the spreading of anthropogenic carbon into the ocean interior. The objective of this study is to quantify the Suess effect (SE) in North Atlantic water masses using sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) as the ...

Are there Triflagellate Gametes in the Foraminifera? [PDF]
THE great diversity of form shown by the gametes of the Protozoa is well known. Even among the Foraminifera they may be amœboid, for example, Patellina1, Spirillina2; or flagellate, at least at one stage. Of the latter, to mention only one feature, some may have but one flagellum as in Gromia3,4, but in the more typical Foraminifera they are usually ...

Unifying Retaria Research: A Common Framework for Studying Foraminifera and Radiolaria
Research on Foraminifera and Radiolaria has predominantly focused on their fossil remains. This synthesis identifies the “Big Five” disciplines of a unified Retaria research: diversity and evolution, ecology, life cycles, and ecosystem roles, highlighting this lineage as a model system for understanding life's resilience in a rapidly changing planet ...

AMS 14C dating of Holocene estuarine deposits: consequences of high energy and reworked foraminifera
Benthic foraminiferal species were used to AMS date Holocene sediments adjacent to trangressive overlap boundaries (TOB) in two high-energy estuaries in northern Spain.

Holocene relative sea-level reconstruction for the central great barrier reef, Australia: a subtidal foraminiferal approach [PDF]
Contemporary subtidal foraminiferal samples and associated environmental Information were collected from two embayments along the central Great Barrier Reef coastline, Australia, to comprehend the relationship of benthic foraminiferal assemblages with ...

Representing Zooplankters: An Example from the Foraminifera
Because of their excellent preservation record, testate zooplankters provide valuable proxy ocean climate data through the Quaternary–Recent. Commonly, specimen abundances are sought, which are time-consuming to collect manually and require taxonomic ...
