Chemical Oceanography and the Marine Carbon Cycle
Other potential problems with the benthic foraminiferan d13C exist. For example,
some species of benthic Foraminifera have been shown to become lighter in
d13C as the rain rate of organic matter increases (Mackensen et al., 1993). This
is ...

The foraminiferan Archais feeds on bacteria and diatoms ( Cylindrotheca
closterium , Navicula diver sistriata and Nitz- schia sp. were all taken up from
culture) and so has an additional algal source of nutrients. Boltovsky (1963)
reports many ...

Telling the Evolutionary Time: Molecular Clocks and the ...
Foraminiferan tests are abundant and widespread in sediment samples. Species
identification is sometimes difficult, but the recognition of genera and higher
taxonomic units is usually relatively easy. This makes Foraminifera an excellent
tool ...

Evolutionary Biology of Ostracoda: Its Fundamentals and ...
Maybury: The foraminiferan faunas are diverse, although they do not attain such
high levels of species diversity as do the Ostracoda. Margerel, for example, in
Mitchell et al. (1973) lists 101 benthonic foraminiferan species from St. Erth: but
this ...

Fungi, Algae, and Protists
Foraminiferan Foraminiferans are unicellular organisms characterized by long,
fine pseudopodia that extend from a uninucleated or multinucleated cytoplasmic
body encased within a test, or shell. Depending on the species, the test ranges in
...

United States Geological Survey Professional Paper
With a relatively uniform amount of sand-size foraminiferan tests being added to
the slope and rise sediment, the ratio of land-derived quartz and feldspar to
foraminiferan tests shows a continuous seaward decrease. The rate of decrease
of ...

The Geomorphology of the Great Barrier Reef: Development, ...
(f) Microfossils Microfossils such as pollen and foraminiferan tests have been
used as sea-level indicators on the GBR. For example, palynological
examinations of continental shelf and deep-sea cores collected east of the GBR
reveal cycles ...

Deep-sea Biodiversity: Pattern and Scale
The foraminiferan diversity-depth patterns also make sense in the context of the
unimodal diversity-productivity model. As we discussed in Chapter 1 , diversity
patterns are hard to relate to density because the latter is seldom measured and
...
