The Monterey Event and the Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Chamber-by-Chamber Measurements of Planktonic Foraminiferal Mg, Sr, and Na to Ca Ratios With Femtosecond LA-ICP-MS. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Rationale Distribution patterns of foraminifera are controlled by environmental parameters such as temperature, salinity, and nutrient concentrations in each water mass. Since trace elements to Ca ratios of marine microfossil calcite test of foraminifera record environmental and ecological habitat information, we used femtosecond (fs) LA‐ICP ...

A trait-based modelling approach to planktonic foraminifera ecology [PDF]
Despite the important role of planktonic foraminifera in regulating the ocean carbonate production and their unrivalled value in reconstructing paleoenvironments, our knowledge on their ecology is limited.

Planktonic Foraminifera are ubiquitous marine protozoa inhabiting the upper ocean. During life, they secrete calcareous shells, which accumulate in marine sediments, providing a geological record of past spatial and temporal changes in their community ...

Calcification intensity in planktonic Foraminifera reflects ambient conditions irrespective of environmental stress [PDF]
Planktonic Foraminifera are important marine calcifiers, and the ongoing change in the oceanic carbon system makes it essential to understand the influence of environmental factors on the biomineralization of their shells.

X-raying planktonic foraminifera [PDF]
Abstract. X-raying planktonic foraminifera provides a rapid, efficient and cost-effective method of recording many specimens for biometric analysis. A new approach is here proposed which replaces previous complicated techniques.

Three hundred eighty thousand year long stable isotope and faunal records from the Red Sea : influence of global sea level change on hydrography [PDF]
Stable isotope and faunal records from the central Red Sea show high-amplitude oscillations for the past 380,000 years. Positive δ18O anomalies indicate periods of significant salt buildup during periods of lowered sea level when water mass exchange with

Paleoecology of the Maastrichtian and Danian sediment at North of Central Alborz, Iran, based on Planktonic foraminifera [PDF]
In order to study the fossil contents of the Ziarat-kola section for biostratigraphical purposes the 212 meters was sampled at Central Alborz. The sequence is mainly made up of monotonous grey- green to light grey marl.
