Samples and Methods: Six marine sediment samples were used on total in my master thesis, covering different world oceans, to obtain as many as possible recent planktonic foraminiferal species for analysing their morphological traits. Sample origin of the samples 1: Caribbean, 2: North Atlantic, 3: A...
