Benthic foraminifera are widely used as paleoenvironmental proxies because of their high sensitivity to environmental changes and excellent preservation potential in sediment.

Joan Bernhard, a senior scientist in WHOI's Geology & Geophysics Department and foraminifera expert, has been studying this population of benthic foraminifera for decades to learn how these ...

The Museum has a strong tradition of foraminifera research dating back to the late 1800s. As a result, the foraminifera collection - with approximately 250,000 slides - is the most extensive of our ...

Large benthic foraminifera form a crucial part of marine communities from warm to tropical waters, especially in coral reefs.

Larger benthic foraminifera (LBF) Larger benthic foraminifera are classified as microfossils because they were produced by a single celled organism, but they can reach a size of several centimetres.
