    Colonization of artificial substrates by Foraminifera (1976)
    Institut für Meereskunde
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-05-18
    Description: From June 1972 to October 1974 colonization experiments were carried out off Boknis Eck (Eckernförder Bay, Western Baltic Sea) with artificial substrates (gravel, sand and clay) in 3 different water depths, 19 m (1.5 m above the bottom), 15 m (4.5 m) and 11 m (5.0 m). The first Foraminifera appeared in spring 1973. With few exceptions only Elphidium excavatum clavatwn (CUSHMAN 1930) was present. lt is assumed that E. excavatum clavatum has an especially good passive distribution capability by advection. This explains why this sub-species rapidly recolonizes the deeper areas of the Baltic after reestablishment of aerobic conditions.

    Benthic Foraminifera biomass production in the western Baltic (1976)
    Institut für Meereskunde
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-05-18
    Description: The biomass (weight of protoplasm) and production of the major species of benthic Foraminifera was calculated for the "Hausgarten" area of Sonderforschungsbereich 95. Data from 440 samples collected between 1971 and 1975 were used for these calculations. Biomass production of Foraminifera is 10-90 mg wet weight/m2/y in the turbulent zone and up to 5411 mg/m2/y in the basins. Epiphytic species produce 13-26 mg wet weight/m2/y. These values are higher than those recorded in the literature with the exception of the subarctic. The foraminiferal proportion of total meiobenthos biomass ranges between 6% in the turbulent zone and 63% in the basin.
