Figure F15. Schematic diagrams reconstructing the depositional history of the area of the southern drilling transect (Sites 1196, 1197, 1198, and 1199) based on recovered lithologies (see "Platform Evolution" for a description of the evolutionary sequence of depositional events). A. Paleogene to early Miocene. B. Middle Miocene. C. Late middle Miocene. D. Late middle Miocene. D. Late Miocene. E. Late Pliocene-present.MS = megasequence. MSB = megasequence boundary.
