Dataset

Description

This dataset includes all relevant measurements and calculations on benthic foraminifera to support the following paper: Chloe M.E. Young, Patrick T. Schwing, Laura J. Cotton. 2021. Benthic foraminiferal morphological response to the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Marine Micropaleontology.

This paper investigates the size and morphological response of four species of benthic foraminifera which remained abundant during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill to determine what the response of individual species were.
