- Micropaleontological Reference Collections of the DSDP and ODP
Collection of calcareous nannofossil suspensions
(size fraction < 63µm)
- History:
- During the preparation of washed foraminiferal residues for
the MRC collections, a sub-sample of the < 63µm sieve
fraction was retained and was bottled into glass vials. The liquid
is unbuffered tap-water. This procedure in foraminiferal sample
preparation was, however, introduced only after 1996, so that
only a part of the foraminiferal samples prepared at the Basel
MRC has accompanying nannofossil suspensions.
