The FOBIMO (FOraminiferal BIo-MOnitoring) initiative—Towards a standardised protocol for soft-bottom benthic foraminiferal monitoring studies (2012, background): “Still, it has been shown that the diversity and assemblage composition of both the fine (63–125 μm) and the coarse (>125 μm) fraction of benthic foraminiferal assemblages are significantly correlated with two year minimum values of bottom water dissolved oxygen concentrations (Min[O2]2 years) (Bouch”
Is the meiofauna a good indicator for climate change and anthropogenic impacts? (2015, background): “Environmental setting is, once again, a very important factor to be considered in impact studies, as demonstrated by a series of microcosm experiments designed to evaluate the effects of physical and biological disturbance and organic enrichment on nematodes (Schratzberger and Warwick 1998a, 1999).”
