DOI: 10.1007/s00015-018-0300-0
Abstract: The eastern edge of the Djerba Island represents an important tourist pole. However, studies describing the environmental processes affecting this Island are scarce. Although never studied before, the peculiar Djerba lagoon is well known by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marmicro.2017.04.001
Abstract: Abstract Planktonic foraminiferal assemblages are used as proxies of surface ocean variations, as documented in five marine sediment cores from the Bay of Campeche (BoC), Gulf of Mexico (GoM), spanning the last 34,000 cal yrs BP. This… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.palaeo.2017.11.027
Abstract: Abstract The late Burdigalian (Karpatian) Korneuburg Basin gives an excellent insight into the continuous modification of its paleo-environments and paleo-ecology and therefore into its dynamics over geological time scales. The investigated outcrops provided a unique… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/pala.12317
Abstract: Biological activity such as burrowing can alter benthic foraminiferal shell preservation and may also modify benthic foraminiferal assemblages by vertical mixing, inducing sediment homogenization. Here, we analyse benthic foraminiferal assemblages and taphonomy of upper Miocene… read more here.

DOI: 10.2113/gsjfr.50.4.319
Abstract: This study explored the response to salinity of intertidal foraminiferal assemblages from the Yellow Sea by culturing them for 100 days at six constant salinity levels (17, 22, 27, 32, 37, and 42 psu) in… read more here.
