During the early Toarcian multiple environmental perturbations led to the genesis of the
Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T-OAE), expressed by the widespread occurrence of black …

The Foraminifera are a diverse class of protists whose ubiquity in marine environments,
small shells, and ease of collection have made them critical tools in bioindicator, bioassay …

At present, environmental impacts from offshore oil and gas activities are partly determined
by measuring changes in macrofauna diversity. Morphological identification of macrofauna …

Coastal hypoxia and anoxia have become a global key stressor to marine ecosystems, with
almost 500 dead zones recorded worldwide. By triggering cascading effects from the …

The Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM, 56 Ma) was a phase of rapid global
warming associated with massive carbon input into the ocean–atmosphere system from a 13 …

The present study investigates the influence of seagrass root systems on benthic hard-
shelled meiofauna (foraminifera). In February and July 2011, sediment cores were collected …

Eutrophication is among the most widespread and deleterious anthropogenic impacts to
coastal marine ecosystems. The Chesapeake Bay (CB) and Northern Adriatic Sea (NAS) …

Anoxia was successfully induced in four benthic chambers installed at 24 m depth on the
northern Adriatic seafloor from 9 days to 10 months. To accurately determine whether …

Abstract The uppermost Pliensbachian-Lower Toarcian sediments recovered from Llanbedr
(Mochras Farm) Borehole (North Wales, UK) were deposited in the Cardigan Bay Basin and …

Benthic foraminiferal tests are widely used for paleoceanographic reconstructions from a
range of different environments with varying dissolved oxygen concentrations in the bottom …
