Abstract

Abstract

The knowledge of ecology of modern living planktonic foraminifera is very important for their application in paleoenvironmental reconstruction. The distribution of living planktonic foraminifers has been analyzed on 20 plankton tow samples collected from the shelf of the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea in Autumn, 2011. The results indicate that planktonic foraminifera is almost absent in autumn in the Yellow Sea. Thirteen planktonic foraminiferal species occurred in the East China Sea, dominated by Globigerinoides sacculifer, Pulleniatina obliquiloculata, Globigerina bulloides, Neogloboquadrina dutertrei and Globigerinoides ruber. The abundance of planktonic foraminifera shows a general pattern, with high abundance in the southeast and low values in the northwest of the study area, which may indicate that the distribution of foraminifers in the study area is mainly controlled by the influence of the open ocean water. The major species of planktonic foraminifera shows apparent different distribution in the East China shelf seas. G. sacculifer, the preponderant species of the shelf seas in autumn, shows a similar distribution pattern with the total abundance. Its relative percentage gradually decreased from south to north, and from east to west, suggesting the control of the variation by regional surface sea temperature. In contrast to the distribution of G. sacculifer, high percentage of G. bulloides mainly occurred in the middle shelf of the East China Sea, and its relative abundance gradually decreased from north to south, and high percentage also occurred in the inner shelf off Min-Zhe coast, suggesting that both temperature and productivity are principal factors controlling the distribution of G. bulloides in the study area. High abundance of P. obliquiloculata and N. dutertrei mainly appeared in the middle shelf of the southern East China Sea and southwest off Cheju Island, possibly modulated by the joint influence of warm water and productivity.
