I am looking for type 1 (as shown above) known as Benthic Foraminifera. (Binczewska et al, 2018).

Here is an image (under the microscope) of some of the forams I found from core section 4. (Author's own).

Hello everyone! My name is Emma and I am an undergraduate scholar studying for a BSc in Archaeology. My research project focuses on the human impact of climate change on the variability of the Baltic Sea ecosystem. I am focusing my research on the presence or lack of Foraminifera (Marine plankton) in baltic sea sediment cores to understand the effects changes in the climate have had on the Baltic Sea.
