Changes in the inflow of saline water into the Bornholm Basin (SW Baltic Sea) during the past 7100 years – evidence from benthic foraminifera record

Abstract: The Baltic Sea (~393 000 km2) is the largest brackish sea in the world and its hydrographic and environmental conditions are strongly dependent on the frequency of saline water inflows from the North Sea. To improve our understanding of the natural variability of the Baltic Sea ecosystem detailed reconstructions of past saline water inflow changes based on palaeoecological archives are needed. Here we present a high‐resolution study of benthic foraminiferal assemblages accompanied by sediment geochemistry (los… Show more

“…In the sediments of the Bornholm Basin, the average amount of shells per gram of dry sediment was higher than in the Gdansk Basin in both seasons and reached 36 shell/g. The species diversity of the benthic foraminifera in the study region was very low, which is also noted in the works, describing the western regions of the sea [Brodniewicz, 1965;Binczewska et al, 2017;Hermelin, 1987;Murray and Alve, 2011;Polovodova et al, 2009] (Figure 3). As was also observed in the studies of [Alve and Murray, 1999;Brodniewicz, 1965;Hermelin, 1987], agglutinated species are the most abundant in the assemblages.…”

They were dominated by small sized individuals (less than 100 m) of a simple single-chamber ES6001 ponomarenko and krechik: benthic foraminifera distribution ES6001 structure, which belong to Psammosphaera, Pseudothurammina and Saccammina genera, and also Reophax species.…”
