Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 40, No. 2, Pg. 11:
Distribution maps and scanning electron microscope images for three foraminifers. The height of each bar indicates the relative abundance of the species as a percent of the total foraminifer assemblage. N. pachyderma (left coiling) in the top figure prefers water colder than 8 degrees centigrade. G. bulloides in the middle figure prefers waters that are influenced by the Gulf Stream. G. ruber in the bottom figure prefers warm central North Atlantic water.
