Figure F2. Sediment lightness (L*) in Holes 1098A, 1098B, and 1098C plotted against modified composite depth. L* data were summarized into one integrated value per centimeter and then smoothed with a 3-point running average. Note that Holes 1098B and 1098C are offset by 6 and 12 units, respectively. The composite depth scale is that of Acton et al. (Chap 5, this volume), except for Cores 178-1098A-6H and 178-1098C-5H and the interval below 178-1098C-4H-3, 60 cm, with modified depths given on the plot. A modified splice used in this study is indicated graphically in the column on the left, where letters indicate which hole was used for each interval. The gap in L* data around 26-28 mcd represents the central portion of the topmost turbidite in Holes 1098A and 1098C, which was not included in the digital image data set.
