Benthic foraminifera are the most common meiofaunal unicellular deep-sea biota, forming
skeletons used as proxies for past climate change. We aim to increase understanding of …

Marked by a progressive increase in the amplitude of climate oscillations, an evolving
waveform, and a shift towards a quasi-100 ky frequency, the Early–Middle Pleistocene …

The Forada section (northeastern Italy) provides a continuous, expanded deep-sea record of
the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) in the central-western Tethys. We …

Patterns of diversity in the modern planktic foraminifera indicate a latitudinal diversity
gradient (LDG), which peaks in the mid-latitude regions. Plankton distributional patterns are …

The impact of an asteroid at the Cretaceous/Paleogene (K/Pg) boundary triggered dramatic
biotic, biogeochemical and sedimentological changes in the oceans that have been …

The response of marine biota to the Middle Eocene Climatic Optimum (MECO) is still poorly
constrained. Specifically, changes in deep-sea benthic foraminiferal faunas have been …

We investigated the response of late Paleocene‐middle Eocene (~ 60–37.5 Ma) benthic
foraminiferal assemblages to long‐term climate change and hyperthermal events including …

Abstract Eocene Thermal Maximum 2 (ETM2) occurred~ 1.8 Myr after the Paleocene‐
Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) and, like the PETM, was characterized by a negative …

We combine stable isotope, calcareous nannoplankton, and benthic foraminiferal records for
Ocean Drilling Program Sites 1262 (paleodepth~ 3,500 m) and 1263 (paleodepth~ 1,500 m) …

Modern and fossil benthic foraminifera have been widely documented from New Zealand,
but detailed studies of material collected from drilling expeditions in the Tasman Sea are …
