This thesis investigates the effect of climatic and oceanographic changes on the distribution of fossil radiolarian assemblages from the early Eocene to early Oligocene (~56–30 Ma) in the Southwest Pacific. Radiolarian assemblages have been analysed from a series of archived cores collected by the D...
