The Foraminifera of the Exe Estuary
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 May 2009
Extract
Samples of sand were taken, either from the shore immediately above low water of spring tides, or from the bottom in a few inches of water.
With one exception no samples were dredged. The localities were few: Polesands; the north or estuarine shore of the Warren west of Salthouse Lake; the banks of the Salthouse Lake; a low-water stream on the Warren; near Lympstone; and (the dredged sample) within Exmouth Docks.
