Both living and dead Foraminifera were collected from 15 sampling stations in the Araniar river estuary, along the east coast of India for a period of one year. The distribution of the species has been studied with respect to time and space. Based on the Q-mode cluster analysis of the foraminifera, three major biotopes have been recognised, one of which has been subdivided into three sub-biotopes, based on the change in the level of correlation.

Abstract


Both living and dead Foraminifera were collected from 15 sampling stations in the Araniar river estuary, along the east coast of India for a period of one year. The distribution of the species has been studied with respect to time and space. Based on the Q-mode cluster analysis of the foraminifera, three major biotopes have been recognised, one of which has been subdivided into three sub-biotopes, based on the change in the level of correlation.
