Abstract:With a few paleoclimatic assessments in Sri Lanka using calcareous nannofossils as paleoclimatic proxies, the current study focuses on reconstructing the temporal evolution of sea surface paleoclimatic conditions (thermocline and nutricline levels) by studying samples from Dorado-North hydrocarbon exploration well, Mannar Basin. The recovery of well-preserved calcareous nannofossils from Late Paleocene to Late Eocene sediment samples was made possible using the standard smear slide preparation method. Semiquan… Show more
