Benthic foraminifers were studied quantitatively in 120 lower Miocene through upper Pleistocene samples from Ocean Drilling Program Site 747 (Central Kerguelen Plateau) and Sites 748 and 751 (Southern Kerguelen Plateau). These sites are situated on an 450-km-long, north-south transect between 54°49&...
