PHYSPROP (raw and spliced physical properties
data)
The physical properties data include chromaticity
a* (a*) and b* (b*) and L* (L*) lightness parameters,
GRAPE (gr), magnetic susceptibility (ms), and natural
gamma-ray (ng) measurements. For Site 1062, spliced
data sets for the east flank of the wave, the west
flank of the wave, and the wave crest are indicated
in the filename by "se," "sw,"
and "sc," respectively. The raw and spliced
data are organized by site in the following directory
structure:
1054
1055
1056
1057
1058
1059
1060
1061
1062
1063
1064
SPLICER (splice and affine tables used in the
Splicer program)
The splice and affine tables are organized in the
following directory structure:
AFFINE
SPLICE
The AFFINE tables define the depth offsets
that must be applied to each core in each hole to
align all stratigraphic features among holes. A
binary toggle value (Y/N) indicates whether the
core was actually shifted to match other cores.
The SPLICE tables list the tie points that are
used to build the spliced data record from the
depth-shifted core data. The file effectively
summarizes the sampling pathway for obtaining a
splice (i.e., a composite section from any data
set). Each line of a SPLICE table indicates a
stratigraphically equivalent horizon. That is,
Sample X in Hole A ties to Sample Y in Hole B.
