Variations of richness and abundance of bathyal marine ostracods from the Campos Basin (Brazil) in response to climatic changes of the late Pleistocene
Benthic marine ostracods are important paleoenvironmental indicators due to their sensitivity to ecological parameters, which are particularly useful in palaeoclimatic and paleoceanographic reconstructions during the Quaternary. The preliminary study of ostracods from 61 samples of a piston core col...

Benthic marine ostracods are important paleoenvironmental indicators due to their sensitivity to ecological parameters, which are particularly useful in palaeoclimatic and paleoceanographic reconstructions during the Quaternary.

The levels of abundance, here named as events, were numbered from 1 to 6 (E1-E6) and calibrated according to the zones of planktonic foraminifera (W, X, Y).
