Session 4: The final talk of the day, and the keynote of the session, given by Abduljamiu Olalekan Amao (@KFUPM) is on the future of benthic foraminiferal diversity in the Arabian Gulf: a system under pressure from climate change.
Session 4: The penultimate talk of the session (& the day!) is from Yahel Eshed (@bengurionu) - Benthic foraminifera associated with sea grass as a model ecosystem for monitoring environmental changes.
Session 4: Some planktic foraminifera now from Tiago Menezes Freire (@UniCologne) to explain the paleoceanographic conditions through MIS 4 in the mid-latitude Western South Atlantic.
Session 4: The Ecology of benthic foraminifera in a mudflat subjected to fable bacterial activity being explained by Maxime Daviray (@UnivAngers) now.
Session 4: Anna Saupe (@UniCologne) is talking us through the biogeographic patterns of benthic foraminifera in contourite drift systems of the high-latitude North Atlantic Ocean any minute now!
Session 4: First on the agenda is a talk on the diversity and depth distribution of modern benthic foraminifera offshore Brunei Darussalam from Sulia Goeting (@UniGenova).
Session 4 is all about Foramonitoring and understanding the past, present & future of marine environments. Convened by @BasiaLikesRocks, Eileah Sims (@TAMUGandG grad), Danna Titelboim (@BristolPalaeo) & Liliana de Castro Dias Guerra (@ualg).
After Session 3 we have the Session 4 poster session featuring Leaky Gateways and Messinian Deposits!
Session 3: Our final talk is from Daniel Gaskell (@Yale), exploring how CO2 capture explains δ13C vital effects in foraminifera.
Session 3: our penultimate talk is from Prof. Kate Darling (@EdinburghUni, @StirUni) - Not seeing the woods for the trees: a case for obligate alteration of generation in non-spinose planktonic foraminifera.
Session 3: James Mulqueeney (@BristolUni) is assessing the impact of climate change on the structural integrity of benthic foraminifera during the Palaeocene Eocene Thermal Maximum and its implication for future climate change.
Session 3: Next up we have a study of the September 28th 2018 Tsunamigenic Landslide Deposits in Palu, Central Sulawesi, using Foraminifera data, by Rikza Nur Faqih An Nahar (@ITERAOfficial).
Session 3: Kicking off part 2 of our General Session is our keynote speaker Dr. Haruka Takagi (@Chiba_Univ_PR) on the advances in planktic foraminifera photosymbiosis research: partnership, photophysiology, and implications on evolution.
After the break we have our 2nd General Session at #TMSForamFestival2021, convened by @chloelouisetodd (@unisouthampton), @geochemjess, Oghalomeno Ononeme (@okstate), & Mavrommatis Nikolaos (@Aristoteleio). Stay tuned!
Our last speaker for session 2 (going live in a few min) is @jfabrombacher, giving us an introduction on how to use R, when studying foraminifera shell growth in 3D! ☀️
Session 2: soon up Allison Hsiang, with her talk on Automated community ecology of planktonic foraminifera using deep learning ☀️
Sessions 2: stay tuned for @PalaeoLou's talk on
the very exciting eSlide tool for online microfossil identification ☀️
Session 2 of the foraminifera festival is being kicked off by @GiuliMarg, with the talk Planktonic foraminifera and climate changes: the last 2000 years. Stay tuned for more great foram talks!
Session 1: Soon @MichAdebayo will be presenting his poster looking at the environmental controls on the size distribution of planktic forams in the Arabian Sea #TMSForamFestival21
Session 1: Our second keynote @FFlavia_BG is now presenting new results #staytuned #TMSForamFestival21
