Figure F18. Plots of carbonate content (blue triangles), total organic carbon (black diamonds), group abundance and preservation of benthic foraminifers, and species abundance of Globobulimina pacifica (inset), Site U1404. Green and blue bars represent intervals of abundant large centric diatoms and orosphaerid radiolarians, respectively. Inset is a photomicrograph of G. pacifica. Abundance: B = barren, P = present, R = rare, F = few, C = common, A = abundant, and D = dominant. Preservation: P = poor, M = moderate, G = good, VG = very good.
