Notes: AS = abundance shift, FO = first occurrence, LO = last occurrence. Age estimates presented here were used to help constrain the 18O stratigraphy for this site but were not used as tie points in the age model applied to Figure 6. Reported depths are in original mbsf and are not corrected for gas expansion. Ericson zones are after Ericson et al. (1961) and Ericson and Wollin (1968).
