Food Spectrum and Habitat-Specific Diets of Benthic Foraminifera From the Wadden Sea – A Fatty Acid Biomarker Approach

Food Spectrum and Habitat-Specific Diets of Benthic Foraminifera From the Wadden Sea – A Fatty Acid Biomarker Approach

Tidal coasts are characterized by natural disturbances, forming a broad variety of habitats, which provide different niches and varying food resources for benthic foraminifera. Foraminifera occupy different trophic levels and fill key trophic positions in benthic food webs, but detailed studies on t...
