Notes: Sources of reference age for all biostratigraphic events are listed in Tables T2 and T3 in the "Explanatory Notes" chapter. CN = calcareous nannofossils, PF = planktonic foraminifers, BF = benthic foraminifers. FO = first occurrence, FCO = first common occurrence, LO = last occurrence. * = events used in calculating average sedimentation rate. Depth for the top and the bottom of biostratigraphic events = the mean of the sample interval. Depth in bold indicates where the marker species was observed highest or lowest in the studied samples; depth range between the top and bottom is the interval where the real bioevent may occur. Bars in average sedimentation rate column indicate the range of samples to which the average sedimentation applies.
