Figure 5. JOIDES Resolution seismic Line 2S-II (single channel) across Site 976. A. Original profile. B. Drawn interpretation of Line 2S-II based on Site 976 data (modified from Shipboard Scientific Party, 1996). Reflectors and lithoseismic units I-IV from Comas et al. (1992). Reflectors correspond to major unconformities within sediments: R3 = early Tortonian, M = Messinian "M" unconformity. Ia = Pleistocene, Ib and Ic = Pliocene sequences (Comas, Zahn, Klaus et al., 1996). MB = Metamorphic basement. Location of seismic line is shown in Figure 1.
