Evolutionary Palaeoecological and Morphological Response of <i>Globorotalia menardii</i> to Environmental Stress Conditions Preceding the Tortonian–Messinian Boundary in the Mediterranean Basin

Evolutionary Palaeoecological and Morphological Response of <i>Globorotalia menardii</i> to Environmental Stress Conditions Preceding the Tortonian–Messinian Boundary in the Mediterranean Basin

The Tortonian–Messinian transition is associated with important climatic and oceanographic changes in the Mediterranean Basin, which have shaped both the biotic and abiotic nature of this setting. The morphological variability of the planktonic foraminifera <i>Globorotalia menardii</i>,...
