ON THE INTERPLAY BETWEEN HYDRODYNAMICS, BOTTOM MORPHOLOGY, SEDIMENTARY PROCESSES AND BENTHIC FORAMINIFERA ASSEMBLAGES IN THE SÃO PAULO BIGHT (BRAZIL, SW ATLANTIC)

Surface sediment samples recovered in the São Paulo Bight (SW Atlantic) were collected between 45 to 1132 m water depths to characterize sedimentary processes based on a multiproxy approach. This study analysis benthic foraminifera and abiotic data, including granulometry, TOC and C/N values. Spatia...
