Abstract: The lower Miocene marine units of NW Iran (Hamedan–Miandoab area) were studied to establish a high-resolution biostratigraphy framework in the context of European standard biozonation (SBZ zonal scheme). The units are dominated by larger and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10347-017-0514-z
Abstract: During the Cenomanian–Turonian transition interval, larger benthic foraminifera became extinct or suffered decreases in terms of their diversity. Anoxic/dysoxic conditions of oceanic bottom water masses and potentially seawater acidification during this pivotal time also affected… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marmicro.2021.101960
Abstract: Abstract Ocean warming is predicted to have negative impacts on marine calcifying organisms. Larger benthic foraminifers (LBFs) are single-celled marine organisms with calcareous shells, and the third-highest carbonate producer in clear, shallow-water, tropical and subtropical,… read more here.
