Summary

Average abundances of polar/subpolar planktic foraminiferal species n the North Atlantic for Nordic Sea ODP Sites 907 and 909 represent percentages when Nordic Sea water was warm enough to support foraminifera. N. atlantica relative abundances at very high northern latitudes (ODP Site 909) are lower than at subpolar latitudes because N. pachyderma (s) dominated these very cold waters during the Pliocene.
