Soil microbial diversity: The hidden wealth of sustainable farming
Abstract Soil harbors diverse microbial communities that are fundamental to soil health and agricultural sustainability. Despite their ecological and agronomic importance, these communities remain underutilized as biological resources for improving crop production.

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.

Taxonomy and biostratigraphy of new and emended species of Cenozoic deep-water agglutinated foraminifera from the Labrador and North Seas [PDF]
Deep marine, fine grained sedimentary strata of Maastrichtian through Miocene age in the Labrador and North Sea sedimentary basins are rich in agglutinated benthic foraminifera.

A succession of marine deposited scree deposits got exposed to meteoric fluids due to sea level drop or tectonic uplift. This potentially caused a unique form of diagenetic transformation in scree deposits, that is the formation of micro rhombic calcite.

A tubular protozoan predator: a burrow selectively filled with tubular agglutinated protozoans (Xenophyophorea, Foraminifera) in the abyssal South China Sea [PDF]
We report the occurrence of an unusual agglutinated protozoan-filled burrow recovered in a box core collected in 1998 from a depth of 2496 m in the South China Sea.

ABSTRACT Hyalospheniids are a conspicuous group of testate amoebae whose rich morphology has allowed their classification based on the characterization of their shells. However, recent studies showed the occurrence of convergences and phenotypic plasticity, which complicate their taxonomy.

Lithostratigraphy and Microbiostratigraphy of the Ruteh Formation in Northwest of Khur, Central Alborz, Iran [PDF]
A sequence of Permian rocks crops out in Northwest of Khur in Central Alborz, North of Iran. This sequence consists of the Dorud (Asselian-Sakmarian), Ruteh (Artinskian-Murgabian) and Nesen (Early Djulfian) formations.

Response of deep-water agglutinated foraminifera to dysoxic conditions in the California Borderland basins [PDF]
Analysis of agglutinated benthic foraminifera from surface samples collected in the San Pedro and Santa Catalina Basins reveals a predictable relationship between the proportions of morphogroups with decreasing bottom water oxygen levels and with the ...

Abstract The sequence of events in the global carbon cycle during deglaciations is not entirely understood. Here, we analyze mean ocean δ13 ${\delta }^{13}$C and δ18 ${\delta }^{18}$O in an updated compilation of foraminiferal stable isotope data comprising 902 time series from 381 sediment cores, with individual records covering intervals within the ...

Dual clumped isotopes in foraminiferal calcite reveal kinetic bias in some species
Clumped isotope (∆47) analyses of foraminifera provide a powerful means to reconstruct upper and bottom water temperatures, independent of seawater δ18O and elemental composition.
