Hello,

we want to study the vertical distribution of planktonic foraminifera in a high productivity coastal area. Unfortunately, we don´t have multinet hauls or sediment traps, at the moment.

We plan to combine bongo net hauling with samples of Niskin bottles at certain depths.

Would you recommend this? Is the volume from Niskin bottles enough for planktonic forams analysis in this type of environment?

Any piece of advice is welcomed.

Thanks.
