This review provides a synthesis of current knowledge on the morphological and functional
traits of testate amoebae, a polyphyletic group of protists commonly used as proxies of past …

Three sediment cores spanning the last 4200 years from Aktun Ha Cave on the Yucatan
Peninsula (Mexico) demonstrate that underwater caves can document changes to regional …

In order to reconstruct former sea level we have developed a foraminifera-based transfer
function using three models based on a modern dataset of 59 samples and 23 species …

Changes in species assemblages of intertidal foraminifera can be used to estimate the
amount of earthquake-related subsidence during plate-boundary earthquakes at the …

The salinity and humidity barriers divide biodiversity and strongly influence the distribution of
organisms. Crossing them opens the possibility for organisms to colonize new niches and …

Winter deicing operations occur extensively in mid-to high-latitude metropolitan regions
around the world and result in a significant reduction in road accidents. Deicing salts can …

A 61-cm core was obtained from 4 m below the water table in Cenote Aktun Ha, on the
Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. The cenote is 8.6 km from the Caribbean coast and its formation …

Arcellacea (testate lobose amoebae) communities were assessed from 73 sediment-water
interface samples collected from 33 lakes in urban and rural settings within the Greater …

We assessed the use of δ 13 C, TOC and C/N values of bulk sedimentary organic matter
(OM) to reconstruct paleoenvironmental and relative sea-level change from mangrove …

This study presents the first systematic documentation of thecamoebians and foraminifera in
anchialine cenotes (sinkholes) from Quintana Roo, Mexico. Thirty-three surface sediment …
