Recommendation:  The project will address the problem of                        fractionation of stable isotopes in disequilibrium with                         seawater by planktonic and benthic species, and therefore the                   erroneous environmental signal contain in their isotopic                        record. The PIs will use culture populations of the benthic                     foraminiferal species, Ammonia beccarri, under controlled                       experiments to determine what environments generate isotopic                    disequilbrium in marine sediments. Up to 2000 individuals at 12                 temperature/salinity/sediment-carbon combinations will be                       cultured. Effects on shell morphology, stable-isotopic                          composition of shells and surrounding pore waters will be                       determined to quantify the environmental role in                                morphology/isotope behavior. Funds are provided for two years                   and the funding will be shared between MGG, BP and CO programs.
