New publication with amazing nannofossil pictures resulting from the Department SEM The Department's Scanning Electron Microscopy Lab has produced amazing images of nannofossils reported in a new paper article. The paper includes a new nannofossil Genus from the Western Equatorial Atlantic Ocean, obtained from a ODP sample (Site 926). Binasphaera nucleonimbiformis, reported, is a tiny cosmopolitan species and extremely abundant during the Gelasian (approximately 2 Ma). It is a cold-water species, living in the upper photic zone, which was until now largely overlooked despite its great abundance, probably due to its extremly small size (1.4-2.9 micrometers). https://lnkd.in/eAPBfaWQ

Bravo Deborah! Always amazing to see our former students shining abroad in their careers! BTW this is also a call to other former students of our Bachelors and Masters programs: share news with us! Current students will also be extremely happy to know about your endeavors and perhaps connect with you to find themselves integrated in a larger network. #alumni #geosciences #environment
Representing the University of South Alabama at the Ocean Sciences Meeting, in New Orleans. Let's connect if you are attending too! I'll be presenting my poster on Thursday, spot 1979. Hope to see you there! #AGU #OceanSciencesMeeting #OSM24

BEST PAPER AWARD MICROPALEONTOLOGY Our colleague Christian Vérard has co-authored a monograph on Lower Cretaceous radiolarians from the Argo Abyssal Plain, which has received the 2023 Best Paper Award from the journal Micropaleontology. The paper provides a better understanding of the changes in ocean currents associated with the break-up of Gondwana between the end of the Jurassic and the beginning of the Cretaceous. https://lnkd.in/e_9pbk-7
