“…Similar assemblages characterize high brackish estuaries (Grossman and Benson, 1967;Culver and Buzas, 1980;Abbene et al, 2006;Culver et al 2008) ( Table 5). Raw census data are presented in Table 6.…”

“…Unit IV is generally mid-brackish lower in the section and becomes low brackish upward. Foraminiferal assemblages are dominated by Ammotium salsum, Ammobaculites crassus, and Ammonia parkinsoniana, typical of low salinity, back-barrier estuaries on the North American east coast (e.g., Grossman and Benson, 1967;Culver and Buzas, 1980;Culver et al, 1996Culver et al, , 2006Culver et al, , 2007Woo et al, 1997;Abbene et al, 2006;Vance et al, 2006).…”

“…A discrepancy between calculated paleodepth and sedimentology has been pointed out, for example, in the Middle Miocene of the Central Paratethys (Hohenegger 2005). Therefore, the estimation of paleodepth using a modified P/B-ratio was compared with depth ranges of individual taxa (Culver & Buzas 1980, 1981Murray 1991Murray , 2006Hohenegger 2005;van Hinsbergen et al 2005). The paleodepth 20-70 m was estimated from these depth ranges (Fig.…”

Abstract:The section of Gârbova de Sus contains diverse fossil groups and rich bryozoan assemblages, with 77 species altogether. Several taxa have been recognized as very important in the assemblage and two new taxa are described in detail: Poricella garbovensis sp. nov. and Therenia transylvanica sp. nov. Foraminifera and calcareous nannofossil assemblages were used for biostratigraphic and paleoenvironmental interpretations. On the basis of sedimentological features and micropaleontological data, the sequence of paleoenvironments can be subdivided into two intervals indicating slightly different climatic conditions.

The East China Sea (ECS) seasonally receives a high organic input due to the terrestrial organic matter influx, which is controlled by the East Asian Summer Monsoon (EASM), and the increased productivity driven by upwelling of the subsurface Kuroshio Current (KC). Changes in benthic foraminiferal assemblage composition in combination with paleoceanographic proxy data (CaCO3 (%), TOC (%), δ 13 Cpf, and δ 18 Obf) are used to reconstruct bottom water oxygenation and organic export flux variability over the last 400 kyr in the ECS. Multivariate analyses of benthic foraminiferal census data identified six biofacies characteristic of varying environmental conditions. These results suggest that enhanced EASM precipitation and KC upwelling directly influenced organic export flux and bottom water oxygen content in the ECS. The ECS bottom water was suboxic during Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11 to 8; suboxic to dysoxic between MIS 7 and 6, strongly dysoxic between mid-MIS 5 and 4, and exhibited high variability between MIS 3 and 1. Spectral analysis of relative abundances of representative genera Quinqueloculina (oxic), Bulimina (suboxic), and Globobulimina (dysoxic) reveals a robust 23 kyr signal, which we attribute to precessionally-paced changes in surface productivity and bottom water oxygenation related to KC variability over the past 400 kyr.
