This review presents an investigation of the evolution of the Baltic Sea basin and its connections through the Eemian Stage, based upon sequences of marine and associated deposits from the White Sea to the Southwest Baltic, via the Karelian channel. Pollen analyses, foraminiferal and ostracod analyses provide the evolution of relative sea‐level change,

The Deccan infra- and intertrappeans volcano-sedimentary sequences have been considered as terrestrial to fluvio-lacustrine deposits. Presence of planktonic foraminifera and brackish water ostracods in the Jhilmili basal Danian intertrappean beds ...

Biostratigraphy of the Danian/Selandian transition: A case study from Kamestan anticline section, northwest of Izeh city in Khuzestan province, Southern Iran [PDF]
The planktonic foraminifera turnover across the Danian-Selandian boundary (early to late Paleocene, ~60 Ma) has been studied in the Kamestan anticline section. The studied interval span planktonic foraminifera zones P2-P3.

Silicate weathering and carbon cycle controls on the Oligocene-Miocene transition glaciation [PDF]
Changes in both silicate weathering rates and organic carbon burial have been proposed as drivers of the transient “Mi-1” glaciation event at the Oligocene-Miocene transition (OMT; ~23 Ma).

Planktonic Foraminifera Biostratigraphy Of Taeno Limestone, Ambon, Maluku Province, Indonesia
The limestone became exposed to the surface because of an uplift event during the Quaternary period. This study aims to determine the age of limestone outcrops in the Taeno Traverse using planktonic foraminifera.

Upper Oligocene to Pleistocene planktonic foraminifera stratigraphy at North Atlantic DSDP Site 407, Reykjanes Ridge: diversity trends and biozonation using modern Neogene taxonomic concepts [PDF]
Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) Site 407, located near the Reykjanes Ridge (southwest of Iceland) offers a rare and extensive record of Late Cenozoic planktonic foraminifera evolution spanning the Neogene and Quaternary periods. This ca.

Calcification depth of deep-dwelling planktonic foraminifera from the eastern North Atlantic constrained by stable oxygen isotope ratios of shells from stratified plankton tows [PDF]
Stable oxygen isotopes (delta O-18) of planktonic foraminifera are one of the most used tools to reconstruct environmental conditions of the water column. Since different species live and calcify at different depths in the water column, the delta O-18 of

Foraminifera associated with cold seeps in marine sediments
Cold seep foraminifera have attracted considerable attention as they provide valuable insights into the study of cold seeps. This study provides a comprehensive overview of the manifestations of foraminifera in cold seep environments and methane seepage ...
