High resolution, continuous records of GRAPE wet bulk density (a carbonate proxy) from Ocean Drilling Program Leg 138 provide one the opportunity for a detailed study of eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean carbonate sedimentation during the last 6...
1995 (iso8601)
Benthic foraminifer and δ¹³C data from Site 849, on the west flank of the East Pacific Rise (0°11'N, 110°3l'W; 3851 m), give relatively continuous records of deep Pacific Ocean stable isotope variations between 0 and 5 Ma. The mean sample spacing...
1995 (iso8601)
Establishing true depths of recovered sediments is critical to determining sedimentation rates for high-resolution paleoclimatic studies. We have corrected the composite depth scale, which accounts for the entire continuous sedimentary sequence,...
1995 (iso8601)
High-resolution records of δ¹⁸0 and relative abundances of planktonic foraminifers were generated for ODP Leg 138 Site 846 for the past 800 k.y., with an average sampling interval of 3.6 k.y. The time scale was constructed by correlating the...
1995 (iso8601)
During Leg 138, we measured reflectance spectra in the visible and near-infrared bands (455-945 nm) every few centimeters on split core surfaces from eastern tropical Pacific Ocean sediments. Here, we evaluate predictions of the content of...
1995 (iso8601)
The primary objective of Leg 138 was to provide detailed information about the ocean's response to global climate change during the Neogene. Two north south transects were drilled (95° and 110°W) within the region of equatorial divergence driven...
1995 (iso8601)
Calcium carbonate percentages at five Ceara Rise sites were estimated at 1- to 2-k.y. intervals over the past 5 m.y., using reflectance spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility proxies. From these estimates and detailed correlations between sites,...
1997 (iso8601)
Sediments from five Leg 167 drill sites and three piston cores were analyzed for C[subscript ORG] and CaCO₃. Oxygen isotope stratigraphy on benthic foraminifers was used to assign age models to these sedimentary records. We find that the northern...
2000 (iso8601)
Pollen analyses of sediments from Holes 1019C, 1019E, 1020C, and 1020D as well as piston Core EW9504-17 provide continuous, chronostratigraphically controlled proxy vegetation and climate data for coastal northwest North America for the last ~500...
2000 (iso8601)
During ODP Leg 138, we tested a prototype instrument, developed at Oregon State University, for measuring light reflectance in 511 channels of the visible and near-infrared bands. The technique of reflectance spectroscopy has been used for some...
1992 (iso8601)
To facilitate the selection of drill sites for Leg 138, a site survey program was conducted on board the Scripps Institution of Oceanography's research vessel Thomas Washington (Cruise Venture 1). During this cruise, which departed San Diego on 30...
1992 (iso8601)
We analyzed the unsaturation ratio (U k/37 ) of long-chain ketones—a molecular sea-surface temperature (SST) indicator—concentrations of carbonate and organic carbon in sediments from Site 846 in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean. Based on an...
1995 (iso8601)
Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 138 was designed to study the late Neogene paleoceanography of the equatorial Pacific Ocean at time scales of thousands to millions of years. Crucial to this objective was the acquisition of continuous,...
1995 (iso8601)
Sediment spectral reflectance measurements were generated aboard the JOIDES Resolution during Ocean Drilling Program Leg 162 shipboard operations. The large size of the raw data set (over 1.3 gigabytes) and limited computer hard disk storage space...
1999 (iso8601)
More than 7 km of long and relatively continuous sediment sequences from 11 sites in the southeast and equatorial Pacific were recovered during Leg 202 for the study of the Earth’s climate and biogeochemical systems on scales that range from...
2003 (iso8601)
This report is the eighth in a series that describe recent oceanographic observations within the California Current system, from Oregon to Baja California. The emphasis here is placed on the observations conducted concurrently by the CalCOFI...
2001 (iso8601)
This report describes the state of the California Current System (CCS)—meteorological, physical, chemical, and biological—from January 2003 to the spring of 2004. The area covered in this report ranges from Oregon coastal waters to southern Baja...
2004 (iso8601)
This report summarizes the recent state of the California Current System (CCS), primarily during the period of April 2004 to January 2005. The report is based on observations made between Oregon and Baja California by various ocean observing...
2005 (iso8601)
This report summarizes physical and biological conditions in the California Current System (CCS), from Oregon to Baja California, in 2001 and 2002. The principal sources of the observations described here are the CalCOFI (California Cooperative...
2002 (iso8601)
Sediments at the southern summit of Hydrate Ridge display two distinct modes of gas hydrate occurrence. The dominant mode is associated with active venting of gas exsolved from the accretionary prism and leads to high concentrations (15%–40% of...
2006 (iso8601)
We present a new nitrogen isotope model incorporated into the three-dimensional ocean component of a global Earth System Climate Model designed for millennial timescale simulations. The model includes prognostic tracers for the stable nitrogen...

Sediments of the central Chile margin record changes in ocean circulation and continental erosion associated with large–scale climate change. Here Antarctic– influenced Southern Ocean currents flow equatorward, forming a link between the high– and...

A 1½-yr survey of planktonic fish larvae collected from 2 to 111 km off the mid-Oregon coast in 1971-72 yielded 287 samples which contained 23,578 individuals in 90 taxonomic groups, 78 identified at the species level. Two distinct faunal...
