The Occurrence and Distribution of Benthic Foraminifera in Tropical Waters Along the Strait of Malacca

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
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

Renewal of planktonic foraminifera diversity after the Cretaceous Paleogene mass extinction by benthic colonizers

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
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 ...

Biostratigraphy, microfacies analysis and depositional environment of the Bartonian–Priabonian limestones in Shan-Abad anticline (west of Rafsanjan) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2021
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 ...

Development of freeze-thaw processing technique for disaggregation of indurated mudrocks and enhanced recovery of calcareous microfossils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Microfossil extraction from indurated mudrocks is widely acknowledged as challenging, especially for foraminifera. Here we report development of the freeze–thaw extraction method through the addition of rapid heating, detergent and ultrasound stages.

PALEOBIOGEOGRAPHY OF SOME EGYPTIAN AND PAKISTANIAN BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL SPECIES IN THE NORTHERN TETHYS [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Sciences Pakistan, 2021
Twenty-one benthic foraminiferal species were originally erected from the Southern Tethys, 13 species from Egypt, and 8 species from Pakistan. Some of these species were recorded from different localities in the Northern Tethys: France, Spain, Italy ...
