Fossile Foraminiferen in Sedimenten des Ozeanbodens in der Karibik

Foraminifera - a microscopic journey into the past of the oceans

Lecturer: Prof. Michal Kucera

Foraminifera are the unsung heroes of climate research Their ornamented calcite shells, preserved in the sediments of the sea floor, form a unique archive of past ocean change. Together we embark on a journey through the geological history of foraminifera, highlighting their success and following their manifold interactions with the evolution of the oceans.
