Regeneration and abnormality in benthic foraminifer Rosalina leei: Implications in reconstructing past salinity changes
(Universita' degli Studi di Milano, 2011)
A laboratory culture experiment has been conducted to assess the response of marginal marine benthic foraminifer Rosalina leei to salinity and associated pH changes. Live specimens of Rosalina leei were subjected to a range ...
Effect of salinity induced pH/alkalinity changes on benthic foraminifera: A laboratory culture experiment
(Elsevier, 2015)
The salinity of coastal waters in the vicinity of seasonally fresh water fed estuaries changes tremendously and reportedly affects the living calcite secreting organisms like foraminifera, as well as their dead remains. ...
Effects of sudden stress due to heavy metal mercury on benthic foraminifer Rosalina leei: Laboratory culture experiment
(Elsevier, 2009)
Laboratory culture experiments were carried out to understand the response of benthic foraminifer Rosalina leei to gradual as well as sudden addition of heavy metal mercury into the media. When mercury was added suddenly, ...
Appraisal of laboratory culture experiments on benthic foraminifera to assess/develop paleoceanographic proxies
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2007)
The laboratory culture studies, carried out on benthic foraminifera, with the aim to refine paleoceanographic / paleoclimatic or environmental application of benthic foraminifera, have been reviewed. The review includes ...
Response of benthic foraminifera Rosalina leei to different temperature and salinity, under laboratory culture experiment
(Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2008)
Live specimens of benthic foraminiferal species Rosalina leei were subjected to a combination of temperature (25 degrees C, 30 degrees C and 35 degrees C) and salinity (25 ppt, 30 ppt, and 35 ppt) to assess its differential ...
Experiment to decipher the effect of heavy metal cadmium on coastal benthic foraminifer Pararotalia Nipponica (Asano)
(Palaeontological Society of India, 2013)
The response of benthic foraminifer Pararotalia nipponica to heavy metal cadmium is observed in laboratory experiment. The results indicate that under a given set of conditions, heavy metal cadmium is deleterious to benthic ...
Response of shallow water benthic foraminifera to a <sup>13</sup>C-labeled food pulse in the laboratory
(Springer, 2014)
In recent years, stable isotope techniques have been applied successfully directly on the sea floor to follow the fate of carbon in the marine carbon cycle. Feeding experiments using <sup>13</sup>C-labeled food enable the ...
Effect of temperature and salinity on stable isotopic composition of shallow water benthic foraminifera: A laboratory culture study
(Bengaluru: Geological Society of India, 2013)
Quantitative estimation of past climatic parameters from stable isotopic composition of foraminifera relies on estimating the precise relationship between stable isotopic composition of the species analyzed and the ...
