Foraminifera; ClassificationAbstract
Eighty species and morphological varieties of agglutinated
benthic foraminifera were identified in sediments from the HEBBLE Site
(4800 m depth) and the HEBBLE Shallow Site (4185 m) on the lower
Nova Scotian Continental Rise. Details of their morphology and
classification are included in descriptions of each species, and
representative specimens are illustrated using SEM, light microscopy,
and X-radiography.

Satellite-derived sea surface temperature, mesoscale variability, and foraminiferal production in the North Atlantic
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1994-02)Planktonic foraminiferal flux was collected at four sediment trap locations spanning a 34° latitude range in the North Atlantic during 1988-1990. Satellite-derived sea surface temperature (SST) and CTD data were integrated ... -
The influence of differential production and dissolution on the stable isotope composition of planktonic foraminifera
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1978-11)Planktonic foraminifera from plankton tows, sediment traps and sediments from the central North Atlantic were studied in order to understand how they acquire their oxygen and carbon isotope compositions. Shallow dwelling ...
