Benthic foraminifera (Protista) as tools in deep-water palaeoceanography: environmental influences on faunal characteristics
AJ Gooday - 2003 - Elsevier
Foraminiferal research lies at the border between geology and biology. Benthic foraminifera
are a major component of marine communities, highly sensitive to environmental influences …

A conceptual model explaining benthic foraminiferal microhabitats
FJ Jorissen, HC de Stigter, JGV Widmark - Marine micropaleontology, 1995 - Elsevier
We present a conceptual model which explains benthic foraminiferal microhabitat
preferences in terms of differences in the downward organic flux. We argue that under …

Live benthic foraminiferal faunas from the Bay of Biscay: faunal density, composition, and microhabitats
In the meso-oligotrophic Bay of Biscay, a diminishing downward organic matter flux with
depth is accompanied by an important decrease of the live foraminiferal density. Although …
