Despite variations in pore diameter and pore concentration between 22 species of planktonic Foraminifera, shell porosites are relatively uniform for those co-occurring in the same latitudinal belts: over 10 percent for tropicalsubtropical species; 5 to 10 percent for temperate species; and less than 5 percent for subpolar-polar species. Shell porosities of fossil planktonic Foraminifera may be useful indices for interpreting Cenozoic climates.
尽管浮游有孔虫的 22 个物种之间在孔径和孔浓度上存在差异，但在同一纬度带共存的壳质多孔体相对较为均匀：热带亚热带物种的超过 10%；温带物种的 5%至 10%；亚极地极地物种的小于 5%。化石浮游有孔虫的壳质多孔体可能是解释新生代气候的有用指标。
