Figure 15. Reconstruction of the Caribbean area during the mid-Miocene showing the location of Leg 165 (solid circles) and other DSDP/ODP sites (stars) (Sigurdsson, Leckie, Acton, et al., 1997). Italicized numbers next to the Leg 165 sites indicate the peak accumulation rate in centimeters per million years of volcanic ash during the Miocene.
