Larger benthic foraminifera from the Middle Eocene
Larger benthic foraminifera (LBF) are common and diverse throughout the Paleogene sediments of southern Tanzania, but have previously been little studied. A recent programme of onshore drilling known as the Tanzania Drilling Project has recovered large proportion of this succession for palaeoclimatic and palaeontological study. The sediment is largely a hemipelagic clay with secondary gravity s...
متن کاملBiostratigraphy of the Aptian–Middle Cenomanian platform to basin domain in the Prebetic Zone of Alicante, SE Spain: calibration between shallow water benthonic and pelagic scales
The biostratigraphy of platform carbonates and adjacent basins outcropping in the Prebetic Zone of Alicante, south-eastern Spain, is presented. With this aim, 42 sections from 13 major outcrops, of Aptian–Middle Cenomanian age, were analysed. Ten biostratigraphic units based upon benthonic foraminifers have been distinguished within this interval. Comparison with other previously published bioz...
متن کاملNew and poorly known Middle Jurassic larger benthic foraminifera from the Karst Dinarides of Croatia
Some new and poorly known larger benthic foraminifera are described from Middle Jurassic (Upper Aalenian–Bajocian) shallow-water limestones of the Croatian Karst Dinarides. Cymbriaella lorigae FUGAGNOLI is reported for the fi rst time outside its type-locality, the Upper Pliensbachian of the Southern Alps. New taxa described include Bosniella bassoulleti n. sp. and Dubrovnikella septfontainei n...
متن کاملThe role of benthic foraminifera in the benthic nitrogen cycle of the Peruvian oxygen minimum zone
The discovery that foraminifera are able to use nitrate instead of oxygen as an electron acceptor for respiration has challenged our understanding of nitrogen cycling in the ocean. It was thought before that only prokaryotes and some fungi are able to denitrify. Rate estimates of foraminiferal denitrification have been very sparse and limited to specific regions in the oceans, not comparing sta...
متن کاملStratigraphy of the Upper Jurassic shallow marine carbonates of the Moghan area (NW Iran), with paleobiogeography implication on Alveosepta jaccardi (Schrodt, 1894)
A micropaleontological study has been carried out on the samples collected from the Sarv Abad section, the oldest and only known Jurassic sedimentary rocks cropping out in the Moghan area. Studied sequence consists of carbonates bounded at both base and top by clastic deposits. Studied carbonate deposits provide an assemblage of benthic foraminifera as well as calcareous algae. The stratigraphi...
