Stable carbon isotope gradients in benthic foraminifera as proxy for organic carbon fluxes in the Mediterranean Sea
We have determined stable carbon isotope ratios of epifaunal and shallow infaunal benthic foraminifera in the Mediterranean Sea to relate the inferred gradient of pore water <i>δ</i><sup>13</sup>C<sub>DIC</sub> to varying trophic conditions. This is a prerequisite...
