Figure F3. Age-depth plot for Site 1143 based on distribution of datums (primary marker species) and their ages as given in Table T3. Sediment accumulation rates are based on foraminifer datums: 25 m/m.y. (5.5-6.4 Ma), 99 m/m.y. (6.4-8.6 Ma), and 8 m/m.y. (8.6-10.5 Ma). Vertical dashed lines bracket the time intervals used to calculate sediment accumulation rates. Error bars for datums are omitted due to the resolution of the depth scale and symbol size. FO = first occurrence, LO = last occurrence. Nannofossil data provided by J. Shyu (pers. comm., 2002).
