Radiolaria is an important group of modern marine zooplankton, which can occur in the whole water column (from the surface all the way down to several kilometers deep). It is also an indispensable micropaleontology fossil in the deep-sea sediments. Now, it is generally known that living radiolarians takes on distinct characteristics of vertical zoning, with regional difference in its vertical distribution. Many studies found that certain radiolarian species living in different water depths may be correlated with water-mass distributions, which can be used to indicate those water masses and reconstruct the paleo water masses. This paper reviews the recent progress in vertical distribution of living radiolarians, with an emphasis on its implication and application in modern oceanography and paleoceanography, and gives a general outlook for radiolarian depth characteristics study.
