A new study sheds light on how a species of foraminifera, single-celled organisms found in almost all marine habitats, thrives in a dark, oxygen-free environment. Most life on Earth relies on the ...

ATTENTION should have been directed sooner than now to an interesting paper by Messrs. E. Heron-Allen and E. Earland on the species of Verneuilina polystropha and some other Foraminifera (Proc. Roy.

A global review of tiny sea animals called foraminifera has identified 57 new living species, including three from NZ waters. The NZ-led research team used DNA sequencing and physical structure to ...

The species survivorship curve for Cenozoic planktonic foraminifera was fitted to exponential (age-independent) and Weibull (age-dependent) models. Model fits that account for censorship bias have ...

Study of benthic foraminifera from late Pleistocene (~444 Kyr to 150 Kyr BP) samples from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Hole 716A (4°56.0'N, 73°17.0'E; present water depth 533.3 m), Maldives Ridge, ...

Impact of single-cell organisms on sediment oxygen levels and bacterial diversity measured for the first time. Dr. Dewi Langlet, a scientist at the Evolution, Cell Biology and Symbiosis Unit at the ...

Planktonic foraminifera assemblage from Caribbean sediments that provide an accurate picture of the species community before human influence. Each shell is less than one millimeter in size. Michal ...

Most life on Earth relies on the sun's energy for survival, but what about organisms in the deep sea that live beyond the reach of its rays? A new study led by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution ...

Woods Hole, Mass. (Jan. 16, 2025) – Most life on Earth relies on the sun’s energy for survival, but what about organisms in the deep sea that live beyond the reach of its rays? A new study led by ...
