Описание:

Benthic foraminifera have played a central role in deep–sea biostratigraphic, paleoecological, and paleoceanographical research over the last thirty years. These single–celled marine protists are important because of their geographic ubiquity, their abundance and diversity in Cretaceous to Recent deep–sea sediments, because of the relationship between occurrence of many modern species and particular water masses,and because of their utility as indicators of environmental conditions both at and below the sediment–water interface. In addition, stable isotopes obtained from deep–sea benthic foraminiferal tests provide paleoceanographers with environmental information that is proving to be of major significance in studies of global climatic change. PaleoBase: Deep–Sea Benthic Foraminifera presents the latest taxonomic revision for 300 species in the form of an illustrated, state–of–the–art relational database. Relying primarily on material collected by the Deep–Sea...
