Figure 3. A. Biochronoloy and age models of Leg 168 sites, as well as correlation between the sites. Nannofossil zones (Martini, 1971) were also plotted as an age reference. Large variations in sedimentation rates between sites are probably due to topography in this area. B. The duration of sedimentation hiatus between initial sedimentation and basalt. C. Topography of basement in this area and detailed location of Leg 168 sites.
