(Table 1) Ooze/chalk cycles: frequency of occurrence at DSDP Leg 74 Sites

Shallow- to deep-water environments are represented by the sediments and rocks recovered from the Walvis Ridge- Angola Basin transect. These calcareous oozes, chalks,...

(Appendix) Oxygen and carbon isotopes in bulk sediments at DSDP Leg 74 Holes

Carbon and oxygen isotope measurements were made in bulk sediments from the five sites drilled on Leg 74, covering much of the Cenozoic. These stable carbon isotope analyses...

(Table S1) Marine Os isotope record across the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary

Continental flood basalt (CFB) volcanism is hypothesized to have played a causative role in global climate change and mass extinctions. Uncertainties associated with radiometric...

(Table S1) Stable carbon and oxygen isotope ratios of Nuttallides truempyi of...

An exceptional analogue for the study of the causes and consequences of global warming occurs at the Palaeocene/Eocene Thermal Maximum, 55 million years ago. A rapid rise of...

K-T boundary in DSDP Holes 62-465 and 74-527 (Table 2)

The global extinctions linked to the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-T) boundary severely affected marine pelagic organisms. The K-T boundary intervals at Deep Sea Drilling Project...

Mg/Ca and Sr/Ca in calcites and estimated distribution coefficients in marine...

Recrystallization processes in marine sediments can alter the extent to which biogenic calcite composition serves as a proxy of oceanic chemical and isotopic history. Models of...

(Table 2) Chemical composition of basalts from the DSDP Leg 74 Walvis Ridge t...

Five sites were drilled along a transect of the Walvis Ridge. The basement rocks range in age from 69 to 71 m.y., and the deeper sites are slightly younger, in agreement with...

Rb, Sr, Sm and Nd concentrations and isotopic composition of basalts from DSD...

Basement intersected in DSDP holes 525A, 528 and 527 on the Walvis Ridge consists of submarine basalt flows and pillows with minor intercalated sediments. These holes are...

Benthic foraminiferal number of specimens in Cretaceous samples of various DS...

Benthic foraminifera from 24 DSDP/ODP sites were investigated to assess their global horizontal and vertical distribution in the deep-sea environment at the end of the...

Benthic foraminiferal assemblages of Upper Cretaceous sediments from DSDP Hol...

Material from the Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) Site 527 from the Angola Basin, South Atlantic Ocean, has been analyzed to determine whether Upper Cretaceous benthonic...
