What is Foraminifera in Paleoceanography Applications about?
Foraminifera are unicellular organisms that secrete calcium carbonate shells. Their shells are useful for reconstructing past climate and ocean conditions from sediments. Planktonic foraminifera are especially useful as they are globally distributed and sensitive to environmental changes. Their shells can be used to infer past sea surface temperatures, productivity, salinity, ocean chemistry, sea levels, and are important for biostratigraphy and petroleum exploration. Planktonic foraminifera have been used
