ANALYSIS OF A FORAMINFERA ASSEMBLAGE: A MICROPALEONTOLOGY EXERCISE | ||
|
BROMLEY, Samuel F., Geoscience Department, Hamilton College, Hamilton College, 198 College Hill Rd, Clinton, NY 13323, cdomack@hamilton.edu and DOMACK, Cynthia R., Geoscience Department, Hamilton College, 198 College Hill Road, Clinton, NY 13323 An exercise designed to focus on foraminifera identification and morphology was created to be incorporated into a micropaleontology course at the undergraduate level. The exercise includes readings, questions, and hands-on work with a real marine sediment sample rich in foraminifera. Although specifically constructed for a Recent marine sediment sample from Paupau, New Guinea, the exercise could be modified to work with foraminifera-rich sample from other locations or ages. | ||
