| Summary: | Benthic foraminiferal communities and sediments in three shores of Barú island are studied. These ones were selected because they have different characteristics. In Mohan beach, situed al norwest side of the island, the sediments are coarse grained, with high contents of calcium carbonate. In
Marimberos beach, situated at Barbacoas bay, the sediments are something finer and of continental origino at Muertos beach, situated at southeastearn extreme, there are intermediate characteristics. About the biothic component, there are different distribution between the foraminiferal species, that are related with calcium carbonate, grain size and e/N relationship. |
