Abstract
During DSDP Leg 94 sediment was recovered from 22 holes at 6 sites situated between 37o and 53oN in the N Atlantic. Paleomagnetic, calcareous nannofossil, foraminiferal, diatom, radiolarian and dinocyst stratigraphic studies were completed. The excellent magnetostratigraphic results, the near-complete recovery, and the abundant fossil content of the sediment allowed refinement of these stratigraphies, especially for the upper Pliocene- Holocene. Because the Leg 94 sites sapn middle and high North Atlantic latitudes, it is possible to use them to evaluate the syncrony of late Pliocene to Holocene datums.-Authors
