Purpose | |
Abstract | The aim of the cruise M69/1 was to collect new material for characterization of ecological preferences and genetic variability of benthic and planktic foraminifera in the NE Atlantic and the Mediterranean. The data gathered during this cruise for a part of our long-term effort to refine palaeoceanographic and palaeoclimatic proxies. Though multibeam data was recorded, it was not the main focus of the cruise and no further information have been provided by the responsible party. |
