Annotated record of the detailed examination of Mn deposits from DSDP Leg 94 (Holes 608, 609, 610A, 610B, 611)

Leg 94 represents the last of four transects of sites set up by the Ocean Paleoenvironment Panel to examine climatic and oceanographic changes in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. During this leg, a transect of six holes aligned roughly in a south-southwest/north-northeast direction were drilled in the North Atlantic from 37° to 53°N. The principal objective of this transect was to document the magnitude and spectral character of the surface-ocean response to high-latitude climatic change in the northern hemisphere during the Neogene.
