Sinopsis de Environmental micropaleontology

Microfossils are ideally suited to environmental studies because their short generation times allow them to respond rapidly to environmental change. This book represents an assessment of the progress made in environmental micropalaeontology and sets out future research directions. The taxa studied are mainly foraminifera, but include arcellaceans, diatoms, dinoflagellates, and ostracodes. The papers themselves range from reviews of applications of particular taxa to specific case studies. INDICE: Foreword; S.J. Culver. Preface; R.E. Martin. Introduction; R.E. Martin.
