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.

Seasonality and stable isotopes in planktonic foraminifera off Cape Cod, Massachusetts
Keigwin, Lloyd D.; Bice, Marley; Copley, Nancy J. (American Geophysical Union, 2005-07-18)Monthly samples of stratified plankton tows taken from the slope waters off Cape Cod nearly 25 years ago are used to describe the seasonal succession of planktonic foraminifera and their oxygen isotope ratios. The 15°C ... -
Combined carbonate carbon isotopic and cellular ultrastructural studies of individual benthic foraminifera : method description
Martin, Jonathan B.; Bernhard, Joan M.; Curtis, Jason H.; Rathburn, Anthony E. (American Geophysical Union, 2010-06-11)Carbon isotopes of foraminiferal tests provide a widely used proxy for past oceanographic environmental conditions. This proxy can be calibrated using live specimens, which are reliably identified with observations of cell ... -

(American Geophysical Union, 2005-08-30)Similar orbital geometry and greenhouse gas concentrations during marine isotope stage 11 (MIS 11) and the Holocene make stage 11 perhaps the best geological analogue period for the natural development of the present ...
