“…Ichthyoliths are most concentrated in the upper 15 m of the core. Identification of actual stratigraphic boundaries was not possible because of the low sedimentation rate, sparse presence of ichthyoliths, and poor correlation to the established equatorial Pacific ichthyolith stratigraphy (Doyle et al, 1977). A gross stratigraphy was derived for this study by aver- (Table 2).…”

The quartz contents of sediments from Hole 595A, determined by X-ray diffractometry, serve as an indicator of eolian transport of terrigenous material to the central southern Pacific. The quartz contents are very small and, within limits of analytical resolution, vary only slightly from the Cretaceous to the present. However, the accumulation rate of the eolian quartz does change significantly. The quartz accumulation reflects the changing position of the site with respect to the terrigenous source areas and the variations in wind systems through time.

“…From the fish teeth characteristics noted above and age correlation with radiolarian zones in the same DSDP holes, a time scale has been set up (Helms and Riedel, 1971;Doyle et al, 1974;Doyle et al, 1975;Ramsey et al,.1976). …”
