Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the paleoceanographical proxies based on deep-sea benthic foraminiferal assemblage characteristics, and presents the following three …
An up-to-date atlas of an important fossil and living group, with the Natural History Museum. Deep-sea benthic foraminifera have played a central role in biostratigraphic …
Foraminiferal research lies at the border between geology and biology. Benthic foraminifera are a major component of marine communities, highly sensitive to environmental influences …
The present study follows up the FOraminiferal BIo-MOnitoring (FOBIMO) working group's aim to explore methods which will improve the usefulness of benthic foraminifera in …
A data set of benthic foraminiferal faunas counted in 138 surface samples from the Mediterranean Sea has been used to investigate whether the bathymetrical distribution of …
Deep-sea benthic foraminifera live in the largest habitat on Earth, constitute an important part of its benthic biomass, and form diverse assemblages with common cosmopolitan …

Deep-sea benthic ecosystems are sustained largely by organic matter settling from the euphotic zone. These fluxes usually have a more or less well-defined seasonal component …
Ecological studies of benthic foraminifera are carried out to explain patterns of distribution and the dynamics of communities. They are also used to provide data to establish proxy …
Records of benthic foraminiferal assemblage variations and benthic δ13C along 12 sediment cores from the western Iberian Margin, between 36° and 42° N at water depths …
