Summary
Abstract: Seasonal and interannual changes in the flux of planktic foraminifera were studies in the Humboldt Current System off Coquimbo (30°S, 73°,15W), using material collected by time series sediment traps located at 2300 m water depth and 100 nautical miles from the coast. The almost continuous record span 8 years (1991-1998) with a temporal resolution of 6-13 days. Field work was carried out during the ... View entire text
