Planktonic foraminifers in DSDP Holes 30-289 and 33-315A

DOI

The work is based on samples from Deep-Sea Drilling in the Pacific Ocean and from natural sections in its continental setting. Species composition of planktonic foraminifera from Maastrichtian sediments of the Pacific and South Atlantic oceans, as well as from marginal seas of Australia and New Zealand and epicontinental basins of the northern hemisphere has been analysed. Two main issues: reconstruction of Maastrichtian climatic zonality, and reconstruction of Maastrichtian paleodepths. Four bipolar climatic zones have been distinguished. According to preservation of planktonic foraminifera and composition of their complexes three levels of dissolution have been identified.
