Abstract:Planktonic Foraminifera have been collected from the water column with different plankton sampling devices equipped with nets of various mesh sizes, which impedes direct comparison of observed quantifications. Here, we use data on the community size structure of planktonic Foraminifera to assess the impact of mesh size on the measured abundance (ind/m 3 ) of planktonic Foraminifera. We use data from the FORCIS database (Chaabane et al., 2023) on the global ocean at different sampling depths over the past cent… Show more
