Abstract: Planktonic Foraminifera and Polycystina (Radiolaria) depict roughly similar—but not identical—worldwide distribution patterns. Discrepancies affect both cold- and warmwater areas, as well as the latitudinal profile ...

Analysis of 307 species of Radiolaria Polycystina in a worldwide dataset of 4774 plankton, sediment trap, and surface sediment samples allows recognizing six major biogeographic Domains. Five of them are circumglobal (Polar ...

This work is based on the compilation of currently accessible (published and unpublished) data on Radiolaria (Polycystina) distributions from plankton and sediment trap samples, and from surface sediment materials. The ...

Radiolarian flux rates, their intermittency, and changes in their species compositions are assessed using data from 73 time-series sediment trap deployments (1357 samples) covering 7-12 calendar months. Results are analyzed ...
