All measurements reported from a core sample.
| Label |
Definition |
| depth1 |
Depth in cm of the top of the sampled interval. For
samples 89 through 131 this value indicates instead the
midpoint of the sampled interval. |
| depth2 |
Depth in cm of the bottom of the sampled interval. For
samples 89 through 131 this value is meaningless. |
| wt<62um |
Weight in grams of that part of the sample passing through
the 62um sieve. |
| wt%<62um |
Percentage of the total sample weight represented by the
material passing through the 62um sieve. |
| wt62um-2mm |
Weight in grams of that part of the sample passing through
the 2mm sieve but retained on the 62um sieve. |
| wt%62um-2mm |
Percentage of the total sample weight represented by the
material passing through the 2mm sieve but retained on the
62um sieve. |
| wt>2mm |
Weight in grams of that part of the sample retained on the
2mm sieve. |
| wt%>2mm |
Percentage of the total sample weight represented by the
material retained on the 2mm sieve. |
| total wt |
Total weight of the sample. |
| 1/split |
Proportion of the sample from which specimens were
counted; a value of 1 indicates all of the sample was used
to derive the counts, a value of 2 indicates half of the
sample was used, and so on. |
| spach |
Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (Ehrenberg) left coiling. |
| dpach |
Neogloboquadrina pachyderma (Ehrenberg) right-coiling.
This category is restricted to specimens with 4 chambers
in the ultimate whorl. Right-coiling specimens that have
more than 4 chambers in the ultimate whorl are tabulated
as "dupac". |
| dupac |
This category is used for specimens of right-coiling
Neogloboquadrina with more than 4 chambers in the ultimate
whorl. |
| other |
Deformed planktic specimens and specimens resembling
Turborotalita quinqueloba. |
| total plank |
Total number of planktic foraminifers in the counting
split. |
| total benth |
Total number of benthic foraminifers in the counting split. |
| plank/gram>150um |
The total number of planktic foraminifers >150um in the
sample divided by the weight of the sample in grams. |
| benth/gram>150um |
The total number of benthic foraminifers >150um in the
sample divided by the weight of the sample in grams. |
| %dextral |
The percentage of specimens of Neogloboquadrina pachyderma
in the sample that are dextral (i.e. right-coiling). |
