The eocene and oligocene pacific equatorial region from odp leg 199 drilling (abstract of paper presented at agu fall meeting, san francisco, 6-10 dec 2002)... The Eocene is marked by a very shallow carbonate compensation depth (CCD) and radiolarian ooze sediments....
Radiolarian abundance- a monsoon proxy responding to the earth’s orbital forcing: inferences on the mid-brunhes climate shift... It is tested in a well-dated radiolarian ooze-bearing sediment core collected from the central Indian Ocean in the southwest of the trap site....
Paleomagnetism of odp leg 199 sediments: implications for paleogene and neogene magnetic stratigraphy and paleolatitudes (abstract of paper presented at agu fall meeting, san francisco, 6-10 dec 2002)... All measured lithologies, including an upper red clay, radiolarian ooze and nannofossil ooze/chalk yield reproducible results and have a moderate magnetization intensity, well above the noise level of the cryogenic magnetometer....
