Journal ArticleDOI
The depth dependency of planktonic/benthic foraminiferal ratios: Constraints and applications
TL;DR: A study of the relationship between planktonic and benthic foraminifera in a great number of areas shows that variation of this ratio with depth can be described using organic matter flux equations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The FOBIMO (FOraminiferal BIo-MOnitoring) initiative—Towards a standardised protocol for soft-bottom benthic foraminiferal monitoring studies
Joachim Schönfeld,Elisabeth Alve,Emmanuelle Geslin,Frans Jorissen,Sergei Korsun,Silvia Spezzaferri +5 more
TL;DR: The aim is to standardise methodologies used in bio-monitoring only and not to limit the use of different methods in pure scientific studies, and to propose two types of recommendations about living (stained) benthic foraminiferal assemblages.
Dissertation
Benthic foraminifera from the Adriatic Sea : principles of phenotypic variation
TL;DR: It is argued that the bathymetrical distribution of benthic foraminifera in the Adriatic Sea is largely influenced by variations in productivity, particularly in the near-shore zone where there is a minimum influence of runoff products.
Journal ArticleDOI
The distribution of benthic foraminifera in the Adriatic Sea
TL;DR: In this article, the distribution of benthic foraminifera in bottom sediments from the Adriatic Sea has been studied in 285 grab samples, and four main biofacial units have been recognized; these can all be characterized by the predominance of one or more of the eight clusters of BFA taxa which result from an R-mode cluster analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vertical distribution of benthic foraminifera in the northern Adriatic Sea: The relation with the organic flux
TL;DR: In this paper, the distribution of benthic foraminifera stained by Bengal Rose in the uppermost seven centimeters of the sediment has been determined in 14 sample stations in the northern Adriatic Sea.
