In this paper, we review benthic foraminiferal distribution patterns in the context of their use
as proxy to reconstruct paleoenvironments, in particular against the background of relevant …

Since the 1950s, numerous studies have demonstrated the value of benthic foraminifera in
detecting ecosystem contamination. The interest in benthic foraminifera has partly been …

Study of the ratio 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 …

In the meso-oligotrophic Bay of Biscay, a diminishing downward organic matter flux with
depth is accompanied by an important decrease of the live foraminiferal density. Although …

In situ observations of microhabitat preferences of living benthic foraminifera are presented
from sediments of the Norwegian-Greenland Sea, the upwelling area off northwestern Africa …

Most environmental bio-monitoring methods using the species composition of marine faunas
define the Ecological Quality Status of soft bottom ecosystems based on the relative …

In October 1989 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 …

In this study, morphometric analysis has been performed on 178 Ammonia specimens
belonging to 12 different molecular types, plus non-sequenced type specimens of Ammonia …

A data set of benthic foraminiferal faunas counted in 138 surface samples from the
Mediterranean Sea has been used to investigate whether the bathymetrical distribution of …
