South Atlantic Cenozoic paleoceanography.

Abstract

Several suites of undisturbed cores obtained by continuous hydraulic piston coring provided material for the investigation of Cenozoic paleoceanography. The faunal record is complete, except for the early Eocene. The isotope records have gaps in the early Eocene and in the early and middle Miocene. Hundreds of samples were studied and thousands of analyses were carried out. Detailed results and conclusions are presented in several separate chapters of this volume. This report is a synthesis.-from Authors
