牙山灣海底의 底棲有孔蟲

BENTHIC FORAMINIFERA OF THE SUBTIDAL ZONE OF ASAN BAY, KOREA

牙山灣 및 주변海底에서 1982 5-6월에 걸쳐서 採取한 表面堆積物 132점에서 現生底棲有孔蟲의 生, 全體群集에 따르는 造成, 分布, 有孔蟲 個體數 相對的 率, 多樣性, 皮穀의 救助 등 微古生物學的 特性을 硏究했다. 같이 産出되는 化石으로 推定되는 交代된 有孔蟲을 包含하여 皮穀의 保存狀態가 불량한 群集의 造成, 多樣性 및 生群集과의 관계 등을 연구했다.

Micropaleontological analyses of the bathic foraminifera of 132 subtidal surface samples of Asan Bay located in the middle of the western coast of Korea, fringing the Yellow Sea collected during late May-early June 1982, shows the results as follows; -Forainiferal numbers of total assemblages are influenced by hydrodynamic and ecologic factors as well as by the sedimentation in the study area. -Badly preserved faunas including replaced faunas seemed to be fossils, all having living counterparts in the study area and showing a somewhat similar type of wall structures with those of the total assemblages and showing no characteristic bathymetric occurrence compared to that of the biocoenose s.1. of the species, lead to infer theirprobable derivation from the environment without a remarkable environmental difference from the study area. But this inference demands further study in consideration of the physical conditions of the study area. -Living/total ratios show a strong negative correlation with the total foraminiferal numbers excluding replaced faunas. But this trend is somewhat deviated in the relatively high ratios. -Fisher-alpha diversity indices of the total assemblages excluding replaced faunas are lying between 1.7 and 3.7. Totals assemblages are mainly composed of hyaline forms with limited porcelaneous and agglutinated ones.
