Table T9. Sedimentation and accumulation rates for selected intervals, based on age-depth model and rates presented in Figure F17.
Bottom of interval | LSR total (m/m.y.) | LSR carbonate (m/m.y.) | MAR total (g/cm2/k.y.) | MAR carbonate (g/cm2/k.y.) | ||
Age (Ma) | Depth (mcd) | |||||
NN21/NN20 | 0.26 | 241.9 | 937.0 | 123.5 | 91.3 | 12.12 |
Brunhes/Matuyama | 0.78 | 396.4 | 324.0 | 47.1 | 37.0 | 5.36 |
Bottom of hole | 1.05 | 518.6 | 457.0 | 67.8 | 60.6 | 9.01 |
Notes: LSR = linear sedimentation rate for total sediment and inorganic carbonate; MAR = mass accumulation rate for total sediment and inorganic carbonate. Brunhes/Matuyama was not observed at this site and was instead interpolated using the LO of the Reticulofenestra asanoi datum at 0.83 Ma.
