Bestandsaufnahme der benthischen Foraminiferen aus einem Profil vom Gletscher bis zum Fjordausgang in der Potter Cove (King George Island, Antarktis) anhand von zehn Oberflächenproben
Ten marine surface samples were collected in Potter Cove, King George Island, Antarctica in austral summer 2010 from water depth from 25 up to 114 m and were counted for recent benthic foraminifera. 27 benthic species were found, which consist of 66,7% calcareous and 33,3% agglutinated forms. The hi...
