The Earth is rapidly warming — but did you know? Similar climate upheavals over 300 million years ago once triggered massive fluctuations in marine ...

Bountiful remains of foraminifera reveal how organisms responded to climate disturbances of the past. They can help predict the future, too.

Most foraminiferan species reside on the seafloor, but paleontologists are particularly interested in planktonic species, ...

We reached these conclusions by examining the chemistry of sand-sized fossils, called foraminifera, from the seafloor south of Tasmania. Foraminifera are tiny single-celled organisms, either ...

A study led by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) provides new details about the survival of foraminifera – tiny, single-celled eukaryotes found in diverse marine environments. The ...

Each little star is the exoskeleton of a small, single-celled organism called Foraminifera. At first glance, the beaches of Taketomi, Hatoma, and Iriomote Islands seem like any other. But take a ...

The ocean's planktonic foraminifera, microscopic animals with hard shells made of calcium carbonate, are struggling to survive as waters heat up and become more acidic. A new study in the journal ...

We developed a custom Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture tailored to the identification of benthic foraminifera using the Endless Forams dataset. The custom CNN achieved a training ...

Planktonic foraminifera are tiny marine organisms, which are essential to the ocean's carbon cycle. A recent study reveals that these populations are shrinking at an alarming rate due to ocean ...

Still, she couldn’t help but notice a bright spot in the results of her recent paper on a species of single-celled organisms called foraminifera (forams). “These forams have been increasing in numbers ...
