Angelika Brandt,Andrew J. Gooday,Simone N. Brandão,Saskia Brix,Wiebke Brökeland,Tomas Cedhagen,Madhumita Choudhury,Nils Cornelius,Bruno Danis,Ilse De Mesel,Robert J. Diaz,David Gillan,Brigitte Ebbe,John A. Howe,Dorte Janussen,Stefanie Kaiser,Katrin Linse,Marina V. Malyutina,Jan Pawlowski,Michael J. Raupach,Ann Vanreusel +20 more
TL;DR: New data from recent sampling expeditions in the deep Weddell Sea and adjacent areas reveal high levels of new biodiversity, challenging suggestions that deep-sea diversity is depressed in the Southern Ocean and providing a basis for exploring the evolutionary significance of the varied biogeographic patterns observed in this remote environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
‘Live’ (stained) deep-sea benthic foraminiferans in the western Weddell Sea: trends in abundance, diversity and taxonomic composition along a depth transect
Nils Cornelius,Andrew J. Gooday +1 more
TL;DR: Foraminiferan and metazoan meiofaunal densities were broadly coherent across the depth range sampled in the Weddell Sea as mentioned in this paper, and a total of 158 live foraminiferal species was recognized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Monothalamous foraminiferans and gromiids (Protista) from western Svalbard: a preliminary survey
Andrew J. Gooday,Samuel S. Bowser,Tomas Cedhagen,Nils Cornelius,Morten Hald,Sergei Korsun,Jan Pawlowski +6 more
TL;DR: Monothalamous foraminifera were abundant in sediment samples from fjords and offshore areas around western Svalbard, with many of the smaller allogromiids and saccamminids resemble species found in the Gullmarfjord on the Swedish west coast.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new monothalamous foraminiferan from 1000 to 6300 m water depth in the Weddell Sea: morphological and molecular characterisation
TL;DR: Molecular phylogenetic analyses indicate that Bathyallogromia is an independent lineage branching within a clade of monothalamous foraminiferans, which also includes such genera as Saccammina, Gloiogullmia, Cylindrogullmia and Rhabdammina and Pilulina.
Journal ArticleDOI
The biodiversity and biogeography of komokiaceans and other enigmatic foraminiferan-like protists in the deep Southern Ocean
TL;DR: A survey of komokiaceans and other relatively large, stercomata-bearing testate protists, presumed to be foraminifera, based on extensive ship-board sorting of samples collected at 13 sites (depth range 1820-4930 m) in the Weddell Sea and two sites in the SE Atlantic (Cape and Aguilas basins, north of the Antarctic Convergence) during the ANDEEP III expedition was presented in this article.
