Benthic Foraminiferal Response to Variations in Temperature, Salinity, Dissolved Oxygen and Organic Carbon, in the Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Recent benthic foraminiferal distribution patterns in Guanabara Bay are investigated in relation to temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen and organic carbon content. Patterns of foraminiferal fauna differ between the entrance of the bay and inner parts. The primary result of the present study i...
