This project focuses on testate amoebae, single-celled organisms that indicate water quality through their fossilized shells. It aims to refine taxonomic methods to better understand their ecological roles and responses to environmental changes.
Testate amoebae, shelled unicellular eukaryotes, are common in freshwater and moist terrestrial environments.
Their shells preserve well in the fossil record and species assemblages have been shown to be sensitive indicators of water quality change, and thus useful in environmental monitoring.
Whilst the ecology of the group is reasonably well understood, a determination of their role in specific ecosystem processes has been hampered by taxonomic uncertainties.
