Depending on the group, a foraminiferal shell may be made of organic compounds, sand grains and other particles cemented together, or secreted crystalline calcium carbonates. |
Gravity and piston cores were analyzed for pore fluid chemistry, clay mineralogy, foraminiferal biostratigraphy, physical properties, and other variables. |
Furthermore, foraminiferal growth is often strongly allometric, and in many foraminifers the shape of the chamber changes during ontogeny. |
But other foraminiferal species that make coverings out of proteins and sand still had a green glow. |
Pleistocene paleoproductivity evidence from organic carbon and foraminiferal species. |
In this paper we provide results of the taxonomic study of planktonic foraminiferal assemblages from sediments across the KwaZulu-Natal Bight. |
