Planktonic foraminifers recovered from Leg 166 drilling showed a progression from well-preserved to poorly preserved specimens with increasing depth. The high carbonate production and shedding from the Great Bahama Bank diluted the pelagic components to the extent that planktonic foraminifers had sc...
