Late Eocene to early Oligocene calcareous nannofossil assemblages from Sites 699 and 703, subantarctic South Atlantic Ocean

Abstract

Calcareous nannofossil assemblages were studied from Sites 699 and 703. Recovery at the two sites consists of an almost continuous sequence of upper Eocene-lower Oligocene sediments. This study describes the calcareous nannofossil assemblages at the transition between the Eocene and Oligocene and correlates these assemblages with those described in lower latitude sections. -from Authors
