Abstract The Kuroshio Current is a major western boundary current controlled by the North
Pacific Gyre. It brings warm subtropical waters from the Indo-Pacific Warm Pool to Japan …

In this paper, we review the state of the art and major challenges in current efforts to
incorporate biogeochemical functional groups into models that can be applied on basin …

The South China Sea is the largest low‐latitude marginal sea on the globe. For a long time,
researchers from various fields have been curious about the sea. For instance, geologists …

Planktonic foraminifera preserved in marine sediments archive the physical and chemical
conditions under which they built their shells. To interpret the paleoceanographic …

Mg/Ca palaeothermometry in foraminiferal calcite is a widely applied tool in
palaeoceanography. However, our understanding of the effects of planktic foraminiferal …

In order to consistently approximate the thermal vertical structure of past upper water
columns, Mg/Ca ratios of eight planktonic foraminiferal species with different preferential …

Mg/Ca and stable oxygen isotope compositions (δ18O) of planktic foraminifera tests are
commonly used as proxies to reconstruct past ocean conditions including variations in the …

Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry microanalysis of fossil and
live Globigerinoides ruber from the eastern Indian Ocean reveals large variations of Mg/Ca …

Tests of the planktonic foraminifer Globigerinoides ruber (white; d'Orbigny) have become a
standard tool for reconstructing past oceanic environments. Paleoceanographers often …

The planktonic foraminifera genus Globigerinoides provides a prime example of a species-
rich genus in which genetic and morphological divergence are uncorrelated. To shed light …
