Benthonic foraminifera as indicators of the paleoposition of the Subarctic Convergence in the Norwegian‐Greenland Sea

A method is presented for correlating benthonic foraminiferal communities in Late Quaternary marine sediments on continental shelves and in coastal areas with the planktonic foraminiferal stratigraphy of the North Atlantic and Norwegian Sea deep‐sea sediments.
