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.

Palaeogene triserial planktonic foraminifera [PDF]
Abstract. Triserial planktonic foraminiferal species from the Palaeogene are classified into the Early Danian Guembelitria, with pore mounds on the test surface, and the Early Eocene-Late Oligocene Jenkinsina, which are also microperforate but lack pore mounds. The stratigraphic and palaeogeographic ranges are discussed, the holotype of G.

Paleoceanographic studies often rely on abundance changes in microfossil species, with little consideration for characteristics such as organism size, which may also be related to environmental changes.

Changing atmospheric Δ^(14)C and the record of deep water paleoventilation ages [PDF]
We propose a new calculation method to better estimate the deep water ventilation age from benthic-planktonic foraminifera ^(14)C ages. Our study is motivated by the fact that changes in atmospheric Δ^(14)C through time can cause contemporary benthic and

Triassic and Jurassic possible planktonic foraminifera and the assemblages recovered from the Ogrodzieniec Glauconitic Marls Formation (uppermost Callovian and lowermost Oxfordian, Jurassic) of the Polish Basin [PDF]
In the 1960s and 1970s Werner Fuchs of the Austrian Geological Survey (Vienna) described a significant number of new foraminiferal taxa that he considered ancestral to the planktonic foraminifera. All these taxa are well-curated in the collections of the

Sea surface temperature changes in the southern California borderlands during the last glacial-interglacial cycle [PDF]
A variety of evidence suggests that average sea surface temperatures (SSTs) during the last glacial maximum in the California Borderlands region were significantly colder than during the Holocene.

Northeastern Atlantic benthic foraminifera during the last 45,000 years: Changes in productivity seen from the bottom up [PDF]
We studied benthic foraminifera from the last 45 kyr in the >63 mu m size fraction in Biogeochemical Ocean Flux Studies (BOFS) cores 5K (50 degrees 41.3'N, 21 degrees 51.9'W, depth 3547 m) and 14K (58 degrees 37.2'N, 19 degrees 26.2'W, depth 1756 m), at ...

Sedimentation environment of the Cojimar Formation (Havana province) based on benthic foraminifera
Cojímar Formation, —Lower Miocene (upper part) to Middle Miocene (lower part)—, is a unit in Western Cuba well known for its extensive development and exposure outcrops. It has been widely used in bioestratigraphic studies.

Planktonic foraminifera assemblage composition and flux dynamics inferred from an annual sediment trap record in the central Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
The Sicily Channel, located in the central Mediterranean Sea, represents a key point for the regional oceanographic circulation, as it is regarded as the sill that separates the western and eastern basins.
