Abstract:
Abstract Studies of carnivorous behaviour of benthic foraminifers are rare and mostly focused on laboratory experiments. Controlled experiments have shown that some agglutinated and intertidal species prey on meio- to macrofaunal metazoans. Here we present observations of the behaviour of specimens of the infaunal benthic foraminiferal species, Globobulimina auriculata and G. turgida, made within several hours of collection from ∼117 m depth in the Alsbäck Deep of the Gullmar Fjord, Sweden. We observed live nematodes within the tests of G. auriculata. Video observations recorded over a 17-hour period showed a G. auriculata specimen with a living nematode whose tail appeared to be entangled within the foraminifer's reticulopodial network. The nematode eventually coiled around the foraminifer's aperture and became much less active, though ingestion into the foraminifer's test was not documented. If these observations indicate feeding by G. auriculata, they differ from previous observations of predation by Ammonia tepida, which utilised external reticulopodial activity to extract the soft tissue of its prey. An alternative interpretation of the video observations, consistent with the observations of the live nematodes inside G. auriculata, was that the nematode was attempting to prey upon the foraminifer. The G. turgida specimens, in contrast, relatively quickly surrounded themselves in soft sediment spheres commonly seen in deposit-feeding foraminifers, and were never observed with nematodes within their tests. We speculate that these contrasting feeding strategies might reduce competition and facilitate the coexistence of these two globobuliminid species.

Abstract. Planktonic Foraminifera are a major contributor to the deep carbonate flux and their microfossil deposits form one of the richest databases for reconstructing paleoenvironments, particularly through changes in their taxonomic and shell composition. Using an empirically based planktonic foraminifer model that incorporates three known major physiological drivers of their biogeography – temperature, food and light – we investigate (i) the global redistribution of planktonic Foraminifera under anthropogenic climate change and (ii) the alteration of the carbonate chemistry of foraminiferal habitat with ocean acidification. The present-day and future (2090–2100) 3-D distributions of Foraminifera are simulated using temperature, plankton biomass and light from an Earth system model forced with a historical and a future (IPCC A2) high CO2 emission scenario. Foraminiferal abundance and diversity are projected to decrease in the tropics and subpolar regions and increase in the subtropics and around the poles. Temperature is the dominant control on the future change in the biogeography of Foraminifera. Yet food availability acts to either reinforce or counteract the temperature-driven changes. In the tropics and subtropics the largely temperature-driven shift to depth is enhanced by the increased concentration of phytoplankton at depth. In the higher latitudes the food-driven response partly offsets the temperature-driven reduction both in the subsurface and across large geographical regions. The large-scale rearrangements in foraminiferal abundance and the reduction in the carbonate ion concentrations in the habitat range of planktonic foraminifers – from 10–30 μmol kg−1 in their polar and subpolar habitats to 30–70 μmol kg−1 in their subtropical and tropical habitats – would be expected to lead to changes in the marine carbonate flux. High-latitude species are most vulnerable to anthropogenic change: their abundance and available habitat decrease and up to 10% of the volume of their habitat drops below the calcite saturation horizon.

Abstract:
AbstractNorian–Rhaetian reef carbonates are exposed in several localities in Taurus Mountains. They predominately contain hypercalcified sponges, followed by scleractinian corals and other less numerous organisms. A coherent Norian–Rhaetian reef structure is exposed near the small town of Saklıkent, west of Antalya. Foraminifers occur in reef carbonates of Saklıkent by numerous genera as shown in this paper. Two species —Siculocosta tauricaandSiculocosta sadati— are described as new. The foraminiferal association of Saklıkent is similar or almost identical to the associations known from the Norian–Rhaetian reefs of Sicily, Northern Calcareous Alps, and Greece but shows less similarity to the foraminiferal association from the Apennines, Italy. The most abundant foraminifers are milioliporoids, particularly galeanellids and cucurbitids. Some sessile and agglutinated foraminifers, includingAlpinophragmium perforatumFlügel, which mostly occurs abundantly in the Norian–Rhaetian reef carbonates, could not be found in the Saklıkent reef. This association of foraminifera is reported for the first time from a Norian–Rhaetian reef in the Taurus Mountains of Turkey.

Abstract:
Benthic foraminifera populate a diverse range of marine habitats. Their ability to use alternative electron acceptors—nitrate (NO3−) or oxygen (O2)—makes them important mediators of benthic nitrogen cycling. Nevertheless, the metabolic scaling of the two alternative respiration pathways and the environmental determinants of foraminiferal denitrification rates are yet unknown. We measured denitrification and O2respiration rates for 10 benthic foraminifer species sampled in the Peruvian oxygen minimum zone (OMZ). Denitrification and O2respiration rates significantly scale sublinearly with the cell volume. The scaling is lower for O2respiration than for denitrification, indicating that NO3−metabolism during denitrification is more efficient than O2metabolism during aerobic respiration in foraminifera from the Peruvian OMZ. The negative correlation of the O2respiration rate with the surface/volume ratio is steeper than for the denitrification rate. This is likely explained by the presence of an intracellular NO3−storage in denitrifying foraminifera. Furthermore, we observe an increasing mean cell volume of the Peruvian foraminifera, under higher NO3−availability. This suggests that the cell size of denitrifying foraminifera is not limited by O2but rather by NO3−availability. Based on our findings, we develop a mathematical formulation of foraminiferal cell volume as a predictor of respiration and denitrification rates, which can further constrain foraminiferal biogeochemical cycling in biogeochemical models. Our findings show that NO3−is the preferred electron acceptor in foraminifera from the OMZ, where the foraminiferal contribution to denitrification is governed by the ratio between NO3−and O2.

Abstract:
Abstract. Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide and its dissolution in seawater have reduced ocean pH and carbonate ion concentrations, with potential implications on calcifying organisms. To assess the response of large Caribbean benthic foraminifera to low carbonate saturation conditions, we analyzed benthic foraminifers' abundance and relative distribution in surface sediments in proximity to low-carbonate-saturation submarine springs and at adjacent control sites. Our results show that the total abundance of large benthic foraminifera was significantly lower at the low-pH submarine springs than at control sites, although responses were species specific. The relative abundance of high-magnesium, porcelaneous foraminifera was higher than that of hyaline foraminifera at the low-pH springs due to the abundant Archaias angulatus, a chlorophyte-bearing foraminifer, which secretes a large and robust test that is more resilient to dissolution at low-calcite saturation. The different assemblages found at the submarine springs indicate that calcareous symbiont-barren foraminifera are more sensitive to the effects of ocean acidification than agglutinated and symbiont-bearing foraminifera, suggesting that future ocean acidification will likely impact natural benthic foraminifera populations.

The broadscale patterns of present day foraminifer biogeography are well reproduced. Foraminifer abundance and diversity are projected to decrease in the tropics and subpolar regions and increase in the subtropics and around the poles. In the tropics, the geographical shifts are driven by temperature, while the vertical shifts are driven by both temperature and food availability. In the high-latitudes, vertical shifts are driven by food availability, while geographical shifts are driven by both food availability and temperature. Changes in the marine carbon cycle would be expected in response to (i) the large-scale rearrangements in foraminifer abundance, and (ii) the reduction of the carbonate concentration in the habitat range of planktonic foraminifers: from 10–30 μmol kg−1 in the polar/subpolar regions to 30–70 μmol kg−1 in the subtropical/tropical regions.

Abstract:
Foraminiferal tests are a common component of many marine sediments. The oxygen isotope ratio (δ18O) of test calcite is frequently used to reconstruct aspects of their life environment. The δ18O depends mainly on the isotope ratio of the water it is precipitated from, the temperature of calcification, and, to a lesser extent, the carbonate ion concentration. Foraminifera and other organisms can potentially preserve their original isotope ratio for many millions of years, although diagenetic processes can alter the ratios. Work on oxygen isotope ratios of foraminifera was instrumental in the discovery of the orbital theory of the ice ages and continues to be widely used in the study of rapid climate change. Compilations of deep sea benthic foraminifer oxygen isotopes have revealed the long history of global climate change over the past 100 million years. Planktonic foraminifer oxygen isotopes are used to investigate the history of past sea surface temperatures, revealing the extent of past ‘greenhouse’ warming and global sea surface temperatures.

Abstract:
Abstract. About 30% of the anthropogenically released CO2 is taken up by the oceans; such uptake causes surface ocean pH to decrease and is commonly referred to as ocean acidification (OA). Foraminifera are one of the most abundant groups of marine calcifiers, estimated to precipitate ca. 50 % of biogenic calcium carbonate in the open oceans. We have compiled the state of the art literature on OA effects on foraminifera, because the majority of OA research on this group was published within the last three years. Disparate responses of this important group of marine calcifiers to OA were reported, highlighting the importance of a process-based understanding of OA effects on foraminifera. We cultured the benthic foraminifer Ammonia sp. under a range of carbonate chemistry manipulation treatments to identify the parameter of the carbonate system causing the observed effects. This parameter identification is the first step towards a process-based understanding. We argue that [CO32−] is the parameter affecting foraminiferal size-normalized weights (SNWs) and growth rates. Based on the presented data, we can confirm the strong potential of Ammonia sp. foraminiferal SNW as a [CO32−] proxy.

Abstract:
Seribu Islands are archipelago within Jakarta Bay built upon the pleistocene coral formation of the Sunda Shelf. The islands are characterized by unique and high biodiversity such as coral reefs. Since coral reef degradation would lead to a decrease of human prosperity, the determination of the coral reef quality is of high importance. Foraminifera offers an early warning system for the coral reef condition, as exemplified by the FORAM Index, i.e. Foraminifera in Reef Assessment and Monitoring Index. This study compared the foraminiferal community structure and the FORAM Index of two islands between the Damar Besar and Jukung. Both islands were dominated by symbiont-bearing foraminifera of the genera Amphistegina, Calcarina, Heterostegina, Marginophora, and Operculina. However, the number of benthic foraminifers at Jukung Island was higher than that at Damar Besar Island, having 17 individuals per species on average. Jukung Island was a conducive site to reef growth, as indicated by a FORAM Index (between 6,48 and 6,57), and Damar Besar Island was liable to environmental change.

Abstract:
Los macroforaminiferos constituyen un grupo de organismos k-estrategas de abundante presencia en los ambientes de plataformas pocos profundas, tanto en la actualidad como en el registro fósil, siendo a su vez uno de los grupos más susceptible a cambios en el medio am¬biente. Durante la transición Cenomanience – Turoniense (CTB), la cual coincide con un epi¬sodio global de depositación de sedimentos ricos en materia orgánica (Evento Anóxico 2 o Evento Bonarelli), los macroforaminíferos que poblaban las plataformas carbonatadas fueron dramáticamente afectados por el drástico cambio en las condiciones ambientales. Dicho cam¬bio generó la octaba mayor extinción de organismos marinos que se conoce, acabando con la comunidad de macroforaminíferos correspondiente al Ciclo de Maduración Global del Cretáci¬co medio (GCMC). En esta tesis se discuten los patrones de recuperación de los foraminíferos luego de esta extinción. El trabajo ha sido realizado en dos paleobioprovincias contiguas: la del Tetis central, que aflora en los Apeninos meridionales, y la Pirenaica, que aflora en los Pirineos meridionales (Unidad Surpirenaica Central). En los Pirineos, al igual que en la mayoría de plataformas a nivel mundial, las aguas que cubrían las plataformas poco profundas del Cenomaniense sufrieron un proceso de eutrofización que condujo a la desaparición de los organismos productores de carbonato, trayendo como consecuencia el cese de la sedimentación carbonatada. Esta falta de sedimentación tiene como consecuencia un hiato sedimentario, el cual que se registra pre¬vio a la inundación de la plataforma (drowning platform). Mientras que la Plataforma Apení¬nica mantuvo una sedimentación carbonatada somera durante el tránsito Cenomaniense-Tu¬roniense, y a pesar haber sido colonizada por organismos cianobacteriales, algunos pequeños foraminíferos bentónicos fueron capaces de sobrevivir. Este estudio sugiere que, a pesar de las diferencias depositacionales y paleogeográficas entre las dos áreas estudiadas, los patrones de recuperación fueron muy similares, de la si¬guiente manera: 1) la información genética de las formas k-estrategas se perdió en la extinción en masa; sin embargo cierta “herencia” se mantiene en las pequeñas formas oportunistas de los géneros Nezzazatinella, Cuneolina, Dictyopsella y Rotorbinella sobrevivientes a la extin¬ción. 2) la calibración cronoestratigráfica de las secciones de los Apeninos meridionales, reali¬zada mediante datos de estratigrafía isotópica de Carbono y Estroncio, indican que después de la crisis del CTB las primeras formas nuevas aparecen en el Turoniense inferior (parte superior) y Turoniense medio, representadas por las especies Moncharmontia apenninica y Pseudocy¬clammina spharoidea; aunque no es sino hasta el Turoniense medio-superior que aparecen Scandonea samnítica y Reticulinella kaeveri, formas relativamente más complejas. 3) en los Pirineos, la reaparición de fauna somera de foraminíferos en el registro fósil no ocurre has¬ta el Turoniense medio-superior, luego de la recuperación de la sedimentación carbonatada, con la presencia de las especies Moncharmontia apenninica y Pseudocyclammina spharoidea además de las formas “heredadas” del Cenomaniense, apareciendo luego géneros complejos como Eofallotia. 4) en ambas áreas el inicio del “Ciclo de Maduración Global de la Comunidad de macroforminíferos del Cretácico superior fue aparentemente simultánea. No obstante, a partir del Turoniense medio-superior se manifiesta ya un cierto provincialismo, a través de la presencia de los géneros Scandonea y Reticulinella en la paleobioprovincia del Tethys central y representantes del grupo de los meandropsínidos en la paleobioprovincia pirenaica, provin¬cialismo que se será mucho más acentuado en las etapas posteriores de ciclo de maduración.
Larger foraminifera are a k-strategists group extremely abundant in shallow water plat¬form environments, both in the recent and the fossil record. They represent one of the most sensitive marine organisms to environmental perturbations. During the Cenomanian-Turonian Boundary (CTB) interval, coinciding with a widespread episode of organic-rich sediments deposition (Oceanic Anoxic Event 2 or Bonarelli event), the larger foraminifera inhabiting the shallow environment were dramatically affected by a major paleoenvironmental conditions change. Such event finished with the middle Cretaceous Glo¬bal Community Maturation Cycle (GCMC). In this work we discuss the post-extinction recovery pattern. This works has been carried out in two neighboring paleoprovinces: Central Tethys, which outcrop at the southern Appenines, and the Pyrenean, outcrop located at the southern Pyrenees (Central Sud-pyrenean Unit). In the Pyrenees, like in most of the platforms, the water layer suffered an eutrophication process that leads demise the carbonate producer organisms, causing a stop on carbonate sedimentation. Such lack on sedimentation generates a sedimen¬tary hiatus perceptible in the stratigraphic record before the drowning episode. While the platform from southern Apennines was able to keep up on shallow carbonate sedimentation, and despite the colonization of cyanobacteria organisms, some small foraminifera were capa¬ble to survive. Here is suggest that even though the paleogeographic and depositional differences bet¬ween the studied areas, both present similar recovery patterns in the fallowing way: 1) The genetic information necessary for sustaining a k-strategy was lost with the extinction, but the “legacy” of larger foraminifera survived in the small r-strategist forms of Nezzazatinella, Cu¬neolina, Dictyopsella and Rotorbinella survivor genus. 2) chronostratigraphic calibration of Apenninic sections made by Strontium and Carbon Isotopic Stratigraphic data, indicates that the firth “newcomers ” appears during the upper part of lower Turonian with Moncharmontia apenninica and Pseudocyclammina spharoidea new species; but is not until middle-upper Tu¬ronian that more complex forms appears with Scandonea samnítica and Reticulinella kaeveri species. 3) In the Pyrenees, the shallow foraminiferal fauna reenter during the mid-upper Tu¬ronian after the carbonate sedimentation retrieval, represented by Moncharmontia apennini¬ca and Pseudocyclammina spharoidea species together with the “legacy” forms from Cenoma¬nian age; then also appear more complex genus as Eofallotia. 4) It seems like in both areas the Global Community Maduration Cycle of upper Cretaceous began simultaneously. However, from the middle-upper some sort of provincialism is noticeable with the presence of Scando¬nea and Reticulinella genus in the central Tethys, while the firth forms of meandropsinids are showns up for the Pyrenean realm, such paleoprovincialism considerably emphasizes during the latter stages of upper Cretaceous GCMC.

O presente estudo integra informações bioestratigráficas e paleoecológicas obtidas através da análise de foraminíferos planctônicos e bentônicos recuperados dos sedimentos provenientes de cinco poços (1-MAS-1, 1-MAS-3A, 1-MAS-4A, 1-MAS-14 e 1-MAS-15) da Bacia de Barreirinhas, perfazendo um total de 127 amostras de calha preparadas e analisadas. Os sedimentos aqui analisados abrangem os andares Albiano superior ao Campaniano superior com registro geológico inserido nos grupos Caju (Albiano - Cenomaniano) e Humberto de Campos (Turoniano - Maastrichtiano). Através dos dados bioestratigráficos obtidos foi possível estabelecer sete biozonas de foraminíferos, de caráter local, com base na última ocorrência do táxon guia (LAD - Last Appereance Datum). O Albiano superior foi definido com base nas biozonas do foraminífero planctônico Ticinella primula Lauterbacher (1963) e foraminíferos bentônicos Lingulogavelinella albiensis Malapris (1965)-Gyroidina bandyi Trujillo (1960); o Cenomaniano inferior foi determinado através das biozonas do foraminífero planctônico Globigerinelloides bentonensis Morrow (1934) e foraminífero bentônico Coronorotalites aptiensis Bettenstaedt (1952); o Cenomaniano superior foi reconhecido através das biozonas do foraminífero planctônico Rotalipora appeninica Renz (1936) e foraminífero bentônico Gavelinella intermedia Berthelin (1880); o Campaniano superior foi determinado com base na biozona do foraminífero planctônico Heterohelix pulchra Brotzen (1936). Após a identificação da microfauna, foi possível reconhecer 108 espécies de foraminíferos pertencentes a cinco subordens: a Subordem Globigerinina, de foraminíferos planctônicos, é representada por 40 espécies e 15 gêneros; os foraminíferos bentônicos são compostos por 68 espécies e 48 gêneros, pertencentes as Subordens Rotaliina, Textulariina, Lagenina e Miliolina. Através da análise da assembléia de foraminíferos, foi possível traçar a CCD (Carbonate Compensation Depth - Profundidade de Compensação do Carbonato) nos poços e separá-los com base na profundidade em: distais (1-MAS-1 e 1-MAS-14) e proximais (1-MAS-3A, 1-MAS-4A e 1-MAS-15). Observou-se que a Bacia de Barreirinhas possui uma tendência geral transgressiva ao longo do Período Cretáceo, caracterizada por meio do influxo sedimentar através de variações climáticas, como o aquecimento global ocorrido neste período. Esta teoria é reforçada pela completa ausência de tecas calcárias, tanto de foraminíferos bentônicos, quanto planctônicos, associada à ocorrência exclusiva de bentônicos aglutinantes e silicosos (Reophax globosus) nos poços distais ao final do Período Cretáceo. Nos poços 1-MAS-3A, 1-MAS-4A e 1-MAS-15, a fauna de foraminíferos identificada apresenta adaptações morfológicas a condições de baixa oxigenação na coluna d'água, características normalmente observadas durante os Eventos Oceânicos Anóxicos (Oceanic Anoxic Event - OEA). Como exemplo destas adaptações morfológicas, foram identificadas três espécies pertencentes ao gênero Schakoina, que possui câmaras alongadas e a espécie Biticinella breggiensis, que possui câmaras bilobadas, sugerindo um aumento na produtividade primária, disponibilidade de nutrientes e paleoambientes depletados em oxigênio. Com base nestas informações foi possível identificar que um Evento Anóxico de caráter local tenha ocorrido durante o Albiano superior, registrado somente nos poços 1-MAS-3A e 1-MAS-4A, enquanto que o Evento Anóxico Global 2 foi registrado no poço 1-MAS-15.
This study integrates biostratigraphic and paleoecological information obtained through of planktonic and benthic foraminifera analysis from sediment recovered from five wells (1-MAS-1, 1-MAS-3A, 1-MAS-4A, 1-MAS-14 and 1-MAS-15) of Barreirinhas Basin, making a total of 127 samples prepared and analyzed. The sediments analyzed here cover the upper Albian to upper Campanian stages with geological record inserted in the Caju (Albian - Cenomanian) and Humberto de Campos (Turonian - Maastrichtian) groups. Through the biostratigraphic data obtained it was possible to establish seven foraminiferal biozones, of local character, based on the last occurrence of taxon guide (LAD - Last Appereance Datum). The upper Albian was defined based on planktonic foraminifera biozones of Ticinella primula Lauterbacher (1963) and benthic foraminifera Lingulogavelinella albiensis Malapris (1965)-Gyroidina Bandy Trujillo (1960); the lower Cenomanian was determined through the planktonic foraminifera biozones of Globigerinelloides bentonensis Morrow (1934) and benthic foraminifera Coronorotalites aptiensis Bettenstaedt (1952); the upper Cenomanian was recognized through the planktonic foraminifera biozones of Rotalipora appeninica Renz (1936) and benthic foraminifera Gavelinella intermedia Berthelin (1880); the upper Campanian was determined based on the planktonic foraminifera biozone Heterohelix pulchra Brotzen (1936). After the identification of microfauna, was possible to recognize 108 species of foraminifera belonging to five suborders: the Suborder Globigerinina, of planktonic foraminifera, is represented by 40 species and 15 genera; the benthic foraminifera are composed of 68 species and 48 genera, belonging to the suborders Rotaliina, Textulariina, Lagenina and Miliolina. Through analysis of foraminifera assemblage it was possible to trace the CCD (Carbonate Compensation Depth) in the wells and separate them based on depth in: distal (1-MAS-1 and 1-MAS-14) and proximal (1-MAS-3A, 1-MAS-4A and 1-MAS-15). It was noted that the Barreirinhas Basin has an overall transgression during the Cretaceous Period, characterized by sedimentary influx through weather changes, like global warming that occurred during this period. This theory is enhanced by the complete absence of calcareous tests, both of benthic as planktonic foraminifera associated with the exclusive occurrence of agglutinating and arenaceous benthic (Reophax globosus) in the distal wells of the end of Cretaceous Period. In the wells 1-MAS-3A, 1-MAS-4A and 1-MAS-15, the foraminifera fauna identified presents morphological adaptations to conditions of low oxygen in the water column, features typically seen during the Oceanic Anoxic Event (OEA's). As examples of these morphological adaptations, was identified three species of the Schakoina genera, which has elongated chambers and Biticinella breggiensis species, which has bilobeted chambers, suggesting an increase in the primary productivity, nutrient availability and paleoenvironments depleted in oxygen. Based on this information it was possible to identify a local character anoxic events occurred during the upper Albian, recorded only in a well 1-MAS-3A and 1-MAS-4A, while the global anoxic event 2 was recorded in a well 1-MAS-15.

Abstract:
A Bacia de Pelotas, localizada na porção sul da margem continental brasileira, foi formada a partir da fragmentação do supercontinente Gondwana e preenchida por sedimentos essencialmente siliciclásticos desde o Cretáceo. A ausência de rochas vulcânicas apropriadas para a datação através de métodos radiométricos na seção terciária da bacia e a abundância de microfósseis de parede calcária, constitui um cenário favorável para a utilização da razão isotópica de estrôncio visando à obtenção de dados cronoestratigráficos. Além dos microfósseis de parede calcária, a ocorrência conspícua de microfósseis de parede orgânica caracteriza esta seção como adequada para a realização de correlações biocronoestratigráficas. Uma síntese dos dados bioestratigráficos publicados é aqui apresentada com o intuito de verificar a ocorrência de descontinuidades temporais na sucessão sedimentar da bacia. Posteriormente, a avaliação da preservação das testas de foraminíferos foi realizada a fim de fornecer elementos para selecionar as amostras a serem utilizadas nas análises e verificar a consistência dos dados isotópicos. Foram reconhecidos quatro tipos de alterações diagenéticas em diferentes níveis estratigráficos da base para o topo: recristalização (neomorfismo), cimentação, recobrimento por filme oxidado e dissolução. Dados da razão isotópica de estrôncio, oxigênio e carbono e da razão Sr/Ca, foram obtidos a partir da análise de amostras provenientes de quatro poços. Adicionalmente, uma abordagem bioestratigráfica e paleoambiental foi possível com base no estudo dos foraminíferos e palinomorfos de dois intervalos testemunhados em dois poços, um na região emersa e outra na submersa, constituindo uma seção de referência para correlação. Com base no estudo dos testemunhos foi proposto um arcabouço estratigráfico de alta resolução, tendo sido identificado um hiato de 2 Ma na seção do mesomioceno e um evento transgressivo entre o meso e o neomioceno. Em uma abordagem mais ampla, o arcabouço cronoestratigráfico da seção do Paleogeno-Neogeno de quatro sondagens foi detalhado. Foram reconhecidos seis hiatos: (i) no Paleogeno, (ii) no eoeocenomesoeoceno, (iii) no mesoeoceno, (iv) entre o neoeoceno e o eoligoceno, (v) no eomioceno e (vi) entre o eomioceno e o meso/neomioceno. Os hiatos identificados, exceto aquele entre o eoeoceno e o mesoeoceno, foram interpretados como disconformidades associados a eventos globais. Uma queda do nível do mar a 10.4 Ma gerou uma disconformidade que pode estar relacionada ao início da deposição do Cone do Rio Grande. Quedas do nível do mar a nível global são as prováveis causas das descontinuidades reconhecidas em 18,5 Ma, 31,5 Ma e 40,5 Ma. O hiato identificado no eoeoceno-mesoeoceno (53-47,9 Ma) foi por sua vez interpretado como uma seção condensada. Do eoeoceno ao neoligoceno, uma tendência de resfriamento associada à abertura da Passagem de Drake foi registrada com base na curva de isótopos de oxigênio. Com base nos dados de δ13C observou-se uma tendência de aumento de produtividade do neoligoceno ao eomioceno, a qual provavelmente está associada a uma fase de aquecimento. Uma nova fase de resfriamento, relacionada ao restabelecimento da calota de gelo na Antártica, foi registrada na seção do neomioceno em ciclos de aproximadamente 400.000 anos.
The Pelotas Basin, situated in the southern Brazilian Atlantic Margin, is filled with siliciclastic sediments deposited from Cretaceous to Holocene. The absence of volcanic strata appropriate to radiometric dating and the abundance of calcareous microfossils constitute a favorable scenario for the use of strontium isotope ratio to obtain chronostratigraphic data for the Tertiary section of the basin. Furthermore, the conspicuous occurrence of organic-walled microfossils makes this section suitable for biochronostratigraphic correlations. A synthesis of the biostratigraphic data published is presented in order to recognize discontinuities in the stratigraphic record. Afterward, the assessment of the foraminifera tests preservation was effectuated with the purpose of providing criteria to select the samples to be analyzed and verify the consistency of the isotopic data. Four types of diagenetic alterations were recognized in different stratigraphic levels, from the base to the top of the studied section: recrystallization, cementation, oxidized coatings and dissolution. Strontium, oxygen and carbon isotope ratios and Sr/Ca ratio were performed in foraminifera tests from four drill-holes. Foraminifera and palynomorphs recovered from cores of two wells located on onshore and offshore regions provided a biostratigraphic and paleoenvironmental information, constituting a reference section for correlation. Based on the core study, a highresolution biostratigraphic framework is proposed, in which a hiatus of 2 Ma is identified in the middle Miocene, as well as a transgressive event in the middle-late Miocene. In a broader approach, a chronostratigraphic framework is presented for the Paleogene-Neogene section of four drill-holes. Six hiatuses were recognized: (i) Paleocene, (ii) early-middle Eocene, (iii) middle Eocene, (iv) late Eocene - early Oligocene, (v) early Miocene, and (vi) early Miocene - middle/late Miocene. The identified hiatuses, except that of early-middle Eocene, were interpreted as disconformities in association with global events. A sea-level fall at 10.4 Ma may be related to the deposition of Rio Grande Cone. Global eustatic sea-level falls produced the disconfomities recognized at 18.5 Ma, 31.5 Ma and 40.5 Ma. The hiatus recognized in the early Eocene was interpreted as a condensed-section deposited between 53.7 and 47.9 Ma. From the early Eocene to the late Oligocene, a trend of cooling registered using oxygen and carbon isotopes may be related to the opening of the Drake Passage. Based on δ13C, a trend of increasing productivity probable driven by warming was observed from the late Oligocene to the early Miocene. Another cooling phase was registered in the late Miocene section which can be related to the reestablishment of the ice-sheet in Antarctica. This interval is punctuated of short-term cycles of approximately 400 ky.

Abstract:
Análises sedimentológicas, geoquímicas e microfaunísticas realizadas em um testemunho coletado na plataforma interna de Cabo Frio, permitiram a compreensão das variações de produtividade nos últimos 9.300 anos. Quatro fases foram reconhecidas, influenciadas por flutuações do nível relativo do mar e mudanças climáticas que ocorreram na margem continental sudeste Brasileira, durante o Holoceno. Antes de 7,0 kanos cal A.P., os dados apontam para baixa produtividade, sob condições de nível relativo do mar mais baixo e clima úmido. Entre 7,0 e 5,8 kanos cal A.P., há aumento na produtividade oceânica, num cenário de nível do mar em ascensão e condições climáticas mais úmidas. Produtividade similar à fase anterior marca o período de 5,8 a 2,8 kanos cal A.P., em condições de descida do nível do mar e clima mais seco. De 2,8 kanos cal A.P. até o presente, aumento na produtividade oceânica e condições hidrodinâmicas intensas, associados ao estabelecimento do processo de ressurgência em Cabo Frio, quando condições climáticas atuais são estabelecidas. A partir de 2,5 kanos cal A.P., observa-se intensificação do processo de ressurgência, controlada pela ação conjunta de ventos de NE mais intensos (associados a eventos El-niño e/ou a posição da Zona de Convergência Intertropical - ZCIT), meandramento da Corrente do Brasil - CB - e configuração atual da linha de costa.
Sedimentological, geochemical and benthic foraminifera analyses carried out on a core sampled from the inner shelf of Cabo Frio, enabled us to identify different four productivity regimes related to sea-level fluctuations and/or climatic changes, that occurred in the southeastern Brazilian continental margin, during the last 9.3 kyr cal BP. Prior to 7.0 kyr cal BP, a lower productivity and less intense hydrodynamic regime occurred at lower sea levels and under drier climatic conditions. Between 7.0 and 5.8 kyr cal BP, relatively stronger local oceanic circulation and relatively high productivity were observed, in a scenario of rising sea levels and more humid conditions. From 5.8 to 2.8 kyr cal BP, bottom currents weakened and input of nutrients increased, with productivity levels similar to the previous phase at lower sea level and in a drier climate. From 2.8 kyr cal BP up to the present, stronger hydrodynamic conditions and a higher productivity regime linked to the establishment of the upwelling process in Cabo Frio. From 2.5 kyr cal BP to the present, upwelling enhancement has been recognized, resulting from the combined action of NE winds (related to El- Niño events and/or the Intertropical Convergence Zone - ITCZ - position), the meandering pattern of the Brazilian Current - BC - and present day coastline configuration.

Abstract:
Foraminíferos bentônicos vivos foram estudados visando a caracterização da plataforma continental da Bacia de Campos (sudeste do Brasil; 20.5°S - 24°S). Espécimes coletados no período seco/inverno/ressurgências menos frequentes de 2008 e no período chuvoso/verão/ressurgências mais frequentes de 2009 foram analisados para investigar padrões de distribuição espacial e temporal. As estações foram distribuídas em cinco isóbatas (25, 50, 75, 100 e 150 m), de nove transectos perpendiculares à linha de costa, totalizando 45 estações. Em cada estação, com busca-fundo e com delimitador 10 cm2 coletou-se três amostras de sedimento superficial (estrato 0-2 cm). Em laboratório, 20 cm³ de sedimento úmido por amostra foi lavado em peneira (63 μm), depois seco e triado na lupa. Material excedente foi estocado para contraprovas. Análises de Agrupamento e nMDS foram utilizadas para reconhecer grupos de estações e a Análise Canônica de Correspondência foi utilizada para investigar relações dos foraminíferos com dados ambientais. As variáveis-resposta quantitativas básicas foram biomassa e abundância; biomassa foi estimada por biovolume. A estrutura ecológica das associações (densidade, diversidade, dominância, equitatividade) foi estimada. Os dados foram avaliados visando caracterização da área e gestão ambiental da bacia. Registrou-se 519 táxons de foraminíferos. A análise integrada dos períodos identificou três áreas principais: (i) Plataforma interna (entre 25 e 50 m) - tem sedimentos predominantemente siliciclásticos, predominam espécies epifaunais, positivamente correlacionadas com areia, temperatura mais alta e concentração mais alta de clorofila-a; nela ocorrem Tiphotrocha concava, Bolivina paula, Nonionella sp.C, Discorbis williamsoni, Ammonia parkinsoniana, Ammonia tepida, Bolivina striatula, Textularia agglutinans, Angulogerina cf. A. jamaicensis Buliminella elegantissima, Paracassidulina nipponensis, Rectocibicides miocenicus, Placopsilina bradyi e muitas espécies dos seguintes gêneros Quinqueloculina, Textularia, Asterotrochammina, Eoeponidella, Porosononion, Polymorphina, Rotaliammina e Discorbis. (ii) Plataforma média/externa – (entre 75 e 100 m) - tem características predominantemente oligotróficas; areia, cascalho e lama, todos com alto teor de carbonato; as associações são compostas por Uvigerina auberiana, Technitella harrisii, Paratrochammina brasiliensis s.l., Planulina foveolata, Seabrookia earlandi, Svratkina spp., Pullenia spp., Discorbinella floridensis, Cibicidoides corpulentus, Stomatorbina torrei, Labrospira jeffreysii, Tetrataxiella ayalai, Mychostomina revertens, Amphicoryna scalaris, Globocassidulina rossensis, Ehrenbergina spinea, Spirotextularia floridana, Siphonina reticulata, Spirillina vivipara, Patellina corrugata e algumas espécies de Astrononion, Fissurina e Lenticulina entre outras. (iii) Área de ressurgências – predomínio de espécies infaunais positivamente correlacionadas com lama, feofitina-a e carbono orgânico total; a associação é composta por muitos rotalídeos pequenos como Bulimina marginata, Pappina compressa, Angulogerina angulosa, s.l., Alabaminella weddellensis, Bolivina fragilis, Bolivina ordinaria, Nonionella stella, Hopkinsina pacifica, Bolivinellina translucens, Stainforthia complanata, Bulimina patagonica, Hanzawaia concentrica, Gyroidina umbonata, Nonionella opima, Epistominella exigua, Cassidulina carinata, Fursenkoina pontoni e Nonionella atlantica; e alguns aglutinantes como Adercotryma glomeratum, Lagenammina atlantica, Ammoscalaria pseudospiralis, Reophax scorpiurus, Sepetibaella sepetibaensis, Labrospira crassimargo, Reophax pauciloculatus, Leptohalysis scottii, Textularia ? torquata e Reophax arayaensis e milliolídeos como Quinqueloculina sabulosa, Quinqueloculina atlantica s.l. e Pyrgo nasuta. A distribuição espacial dos foraminíferos é determinada pela profundidade, sedimento (tamanho de grão e conteúdo de carbonato) e disponibilidade de alimento. Foraminíferos fitodetritívoros indicaram áreas de ressurgência em Cabo Frio, Cabo de São Tomé e também ao norte da área estudada. A biomassa na plataforma interna é similar à de outras áreas investigadas, mas os valores da plataforma média e externa são mais altos que o esperado para uma região oligotrófica, sazonalmente mesotrófica. As curvas ABC indicaram a isóbata de 25 m como a mais perturbada da plataforma, especialmente durante o período chuvoso quando recebe maior aporte da drenagem fluvial e pluvial, talvez amplificada por contaminantes antropogênicos. Área com ressurgência mostraram perturbação moderada pelo método das curvas ABC; provavelmente trata-se apenas de perturbação natural, causada pelo incremento de produção primária. O estudo aporta dados para a gestão ambiental e a reconstrução paleoambiental.
Spatial and seasonal differences over the continental shelf and along the shelf break edges of Campos Basin, southeastern Brazil (20.5°S - 24°S) were investigated during 2008 (downwelling setting/dry/winter) and 2009 (upwelling setting/rainy/summer), based on living benthic foraminiferal assemblages, as part of the “HABITATS Project - Evaluation of the Environmental Heterogeneity of the Campos Basin, Brazil”. The assemblages and their relationship with environmental variables were studied to support the research and development activities of PETROBRAS, the Brazilian state-owned oil Company. The sampling design consisted of nine transects (45 stations) perpendicular to the coastline. Three replicates were taken from each station using a modified grab that performs as a box corer. The surface (0-2 cm) bottom sediment was collected (10 cm x 10 cm), fixed with 4 % formaldehyde buffered solution, stained with Bengal Rose, washed and sieved through a 63 μm mesh. Of the 200 cm3 of each replicate, 20 cm³ were analyzed and the remainder stored for retesting. Foraminiferal assemblages were recognized using cluster analysis, indicator species analysis and nonmetric multidimensional scaling. Spatial and temporal patterns of the foraminiferal assemblages were identified and the ecological structure (density, diversity, dominance, equitability) of these assemblages investigated. Foraminiferal biomass was estimated by measuring biovolume. The correlations of biotic and abiotic parameters were evaluated using canonical correspondence analysis. A total of 519 foraminiferal taxa were recorded. Spatial distribution responds to depth, sediment (grain size and carbonate content) and food availability. Cluster analysis with integrated periods allowed the recognition of three distinct areas: (i) an Inner shelf (25 – 50 m) area positively correlated with sand, higher temperature and higher chlorophyll-a content; it was occupied by Tiphotrocha concava, Bolivina paula, Nonionella sp. C, Discorbis williamsoni, Ammonia parkinsoniana, Ammonia tepida, Bolivina striatula, Textularia agglutinans, Angulogerina cf. A. jamaicensis, Buliminella elegantissima, Paracassidulina nipponensis, Rectocibicides miocenicus, Placopsilina bradyi and species of Quinqueloculina, Textularia, Asterotrochammina, Eoeponidella, Porosononion, Polymorphina, Rotaliammina and Discorbis. (ii) a Medium/outer shelf (75 – 150 m) area is composed by two subgroups correlated with depth and elevated carbonate levels; its species association includes Uvigerina auberiana, Technitella harrisii, Paratrochammina brasiliensis s.l., Planulina foveolata, Seabrookia earlandi, Svratkina spp., Pullenia spp., Eponides antillarum, Discorbinella floridensis, Cibicidoides corpulentus, Stomatorbina torrei, Labrospira jeffreysii, Tetrataxiella ayalai, Mychostomina revertens, Amphicoryna scalaris, Globocassidulina rossensis, Ehrenbergina spinea, Spirotextularia floridana, Siphonina reticulata, Spirillina vivipara, Patellina corrugata and some species from Astrononion, Fissurina and Lenticulina. (iii) an Upwelling area is positively correlated with phaeopigment (phytodetritus), mud and total organic carbon; this group includes abundant small rotalids such as Bulimina marginata, Pappina compressa, Angulogerina angulosa, s.l., Alabaminella weddellensis, Bolivina fragilis, Bolivina ordinaria, Nonionella stella, Hopkinsina pacifica, Bolivinellina translucens, Stainforthia complanata, Bulimina patagonica, Hanzawaia concentrica, Gyroidina umbonata, Nonionella opima, Epistominella exigua, Cassidulina carinata, Fursenkoina pontoni and Nonionella atlantica, and such agglutinated foraminifers as Adercotryma glomeratum, Lagenammina atlantica, Ammoscalaria pseudospiralis, Reophax scorpiurus, Sepetibaella sepetibaensis, Labrospira crassimargo, Reophax pauciloculatus, Leptohalysis scottii, Textularia ? torquata, Pseudobolivina fusiformis and Reophax arayaensis, and some miliolids (Quinqueloculina sabulosa, Quinqueloculina atlantica s.l. and Pyrgo nasuta). During the upwelling period the South Atlantic Coastal Waters enlarged its influence to include not only the Cape Frio area, but also an area at about 75 meters depth off Cape Sao Tome. Biomass values at the inner shelf agreed with available published data, but on the middle and outer shelf the values are higher than expected for an oligotrophic, seasonally mesotrophic basin. The ABC curves indicate the 25 m isobath as the most disturbed one and recognize a moderated disturbance in the upwelling area. During rainy season the 25 m isobath is disturbed by natural eutrophication phenomena that may be significantly amplified by anthropogenic activities. This study provides data for the monitoring plan for the area and for paleoenvironmental reconstructions.

Abstract:
This study investigates the use of larger foraminifera in determining the biostratigraphy of the Avon Park Formation and the Ocala Limestone in central Florida. Sedimentary rocks of the Avon Park Formation are the oldest exposed deposits in the state of Florida, and together with the Ocala Limestone comprise a part of the confining unit of the Floridan Aquifer, a major source of Florida’s water supply. Material from the ROMP 29A core collected by the U. S. Geological Survey was evaluated and compared to previous studies of the biostratigraphy of the formations. The larger foraminifera of the Avon Park Formation were examined in thin section, and those of the Ocala Limestone were free specimens. The larger foraminifera from both units were described and identified, and the biostratigraphy determined. The morphological features of the larger foraminifera of the Ocala Limestone were measured and analyzed at various depths within the ROMP 29A core. The Avon Park Formation contains predominantly the shallow-water, conical foraminifera Fallotella cookei, Fallotella floridana, Pseudochrysalidina floridana, Coleiconus christianaensis, Coleiconus sp. A, Coskinolina sp. A, Coskinolina sp. B, Fallotella sp. A, Fallotella sp. B, Fabularia vaughani and larger miliolids. The Ocala Limestone contains a different, deeper water assemblage that included the larger foraminifera Heterostegina ocalana, Lepidocyclina ocalana varieties, Lepidocyclina chaperi, Lepidocyclina pustulosa, Nummulites willcoxi, Nummulites striatoreticulatus, Nummulites floridensis and Pseudophragmina spp. A, B, and C. The age of the Avon Park Formation was corroborated by the occurrence of the biomarker echinoid Neolaganum dalli as Eocene, and the Ocala Limestone also contained Eocene larger foraminifera with Eocene to possibly Oligocene calcareous nannofossils. The distribution of the larger foraminifera of the Avon Park Formation was correlated with the subtidal and peritidal zones of the continental shelf. Analyses of variance showed that the changes in measurements of the morphology in Heterostegina ocalana, Lepidocyclina spp. and Nummulites spp. were correlated with change in the depositional environments.

Abstract:
To investigate whether foraminiferal stable isotope (δ18O/δ13C) variations have potential as a chronostratigraphic tool in the Arctic Ocean, this thesis presents new δ18O/δ13C data from five marine sediment cores. Three of those are downcore analyses (PS92/54-1; TC/PC-03; PC-07) and the remaining two are core top analyses (PC-04; PC-08). Seven species of benthic foraminifera (Cassidulina neoteretis, Cibicides lobatulus, Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi, Oridorsalis tener, Quinqueloculina arctica, Stainforthia concava and Triloculina sp.) and one planktic (Neogloboquadrina pachyderma sinistral) were compared against physical properties data, foraminifera counts and existing age models. The stable isotopic data reveal species-specific niches, resulting from vital effects and habitat preferences. As changes in δ13C mainly are related to palaeoproductivity and ocean/atmosphere gas exchange, and has limited use as a dating tool, the focus has been to create high-resolution downcore δ18O records that can be compared to a global benthic stack. Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi is found to be the most common benthic foraminiferal species in the central Lomonosov Ridge cores (TC/PC-03 and PC-07) whereas C. neoteretis and N. pachyderma are most common at the Yermak Plateau (PS92/54-1). Usefulness of C. wuellerstorfi in the central Lomonosov Ridge cores is limited due to low amplitude changes in δ18O over periods interpreted to cover several Marine Isotope Stages. A similar issue was observed in C. neoteretis δ18O on the Yermak Plateau (PS92/54-1). There, C. neoteretis abundances were low during interglacials. Instead, planktic N. pachyderma δ18O at the Yermak Plateau site (PS92/54-1), more closely than any analysed benthic species, resembled the global benthic δ18O stack. This implies potential of N. pachyderma δ18O as a chronostratigraphic tool in this region of the Arctic. Using N. pachyderma δ18O to correlate distal cores in the Arctic Ocean would demand addressing the issues of regional differences in pelagic δ18O, varying calcification depths and poor preservation. Addressing why the range of variability differs between sites in the same MISs is crucial, before attempting to stack downcore δ18O from the relatively abundant Arctic benthic species C. neoteretis.
Med siktet på att undersöka huruvida variationer i stabila isotopvärden (δ18O/δ13C) hos foraminiferer har potential som dateringsredskap i Arktiska Oceanen, presenteras härmed ny δ18O/δ13C data från fem marina sedimentkärnor. Tre kärnor analyseras på längden (PS92/54-1; LOMROG III TC/PC-03 och PC-07) medan två analyser begränsas till kärnornas toppskikt (LOMROG I PC-04 och PC-08). Resultat från sju olika arter av bentoniska foraminiferer (Cassidulina neoteretis, Cibicides lobatulus, Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi, Oridorsalis tener, Quinqueloculina arctica, Stainforthia concava and Triloculina sp.) och en planktonisk (Neogloboquadrina pachyderma sinistral) har jämförts mot data som baserats på kärnornas fysiska egenskaper, mängden foraminiferer och befintliga åldersberäkningar. De nya isotopresultaten avslöjar nischer som är specifika för varje art och som, förutom isotopvärdena i det omkringliggande havsvattnet, är beroende av varierande fraktioneringseffekter samt habitatpreferenser. Förändringar i δ13C är mestadels avhängigt paleoproduktivitet och gasutbyte mellan atmosfär och hav. Det har därför begränsad användning som dateringsredskap. Fokus har istället legat på att skapa högupplöst δ18O data som kan jämföras med en global δ18O ’stack’. Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi är den vanligast förekommande arten i TC/PC-03 och PC-07 medan C. neoteretis och N. pachyderma har flest förekomster i PS92/54-1. I den senare kärnan saknas C. neoteretis under perioder där förändringar i δ18O antas vara stora (interglacialer). Istället är det δ18O hos planktoniska N. pachyderma som i högst grad efterliknar en global bentonisk ’stack’. Dessa resultat antyder att N. pachyderma potentiellt kan användas som lokalt dateringsverktyg. För att kunna korrelera mot mer avlägsna sedimentkärnor i Arktiska Oceanen med hjälp av δ18O från N. pachyderma, så behöver hänsyn tas till regionala skillnader i pelagial δ18O, varierande kalcifieringsdjup och dålig bevaring av foraminifererna. Det är viktigt att adressera varför det finns en amplitudskillnad mellan olika sedimentkärnor för samma tidsperioder, innan försök görs att sammanfoga δ18O resultat från den vanligt förekommande Arktiska bentoniska arten C. neoteretis.

Abstract:
80 sediment stations collected along the meridian transect across the Sea of Okhotsk were studied in order to reveal patterns of dissolution based on planktonic foraminifera. The degree of calcite dissolution intensity from planktonic foraminifera determined by different indices (degree of fragmentation, presence of susceptible to dissolution species, benthos/ plankton ratio). The highest degree of dissolution evidenced by a large number of shell fragments and corroding walls were found in sediments from the area of the Kuril Islands. The most revealing measure of probable dissolution of foraminiferal shells in the central part of the sea is a low number and lack of thin-walled species. The effects of dissolution on foraminiferal shells were studied for dominated species Neogloboquadrina pachyderma sin and Globigerina bulloides using a scanning electron microscope. The results are important for understanding processes of sedimentation, the paleo-oceanologial reconstructions and for obtaining reliable results in isotope analyzes.

Abstract:
Introduction: The Jurassic Arab Formation is the main oil reservoir in Qatar. The Formation consists of a succession of limestone, dolomite, and anhydrite. Materials and methods: A multi-proxy approach has been used to study the Formation. This approach is based on core analysis, thin sections, and log data in selected wells in Qatar. Results: The reservoir has been divided into a set of distinctive petrophysical units. The Arab Formation consists of cyclic sediments of oolitic grainstone/packstone, foraminifera-bearing packstone-wackestone, lagoonal mudstone and dolomite, alternating with anhydrite. The sediments underwent a series of diagenetic processes such as leaching, micritization, cementation, dolomitization and fracturing. The impact of these diagenetic processes on the different depositional fabrics created a complex porosity system. So, in some cases there is preserved depositional porosity such as the intergranular porosity in the oolitic grainstone, but in other cases, diagenetic cementation blocked the same pores and eventually destroyed them. In other cases, diagenesis improved the texture of non-porous depositional texture such as mudstone through incipient dolomitization creating inter-crystalline porosity. Dissolution created vugs and void secondary porosity in otherwise non-porous foraminiferal wackestone and packstone. Therefore, creating a matrix of depositional fabrics versus diagenetic processes enabled the identification of different situations in which porosity was either created or destroyed. Future Directions: By correlating the collected petrographic data with logs, it will become possible to identify certain “facio-diagenetic” signatures on logs which will be very useful in both exploration and production. Studying the micro and nano-porosity will provide a better understanding of the evolution and destruction of its porosity system.
