Figure
F3. Compressional wave velocity at 200 MPa is displayed as a function
of shear wave velocity for selected cores from Hole 735B acquired during ODP Leg
176. Also shown are the lines of constant Poisson's ratio (
).
The average Poisson's ratio in these samples is higher than the average for the
Hole 735B samples acquired during Leg 118. None of the Leg 118 samples had
Poisson's ratios >0.30. Igneous lithology (Shipboard Scientific Party, 1999):
o = olivine gabbro, + = gabbronorite, x = troctolitic gabbro.
