(Table 1) Abundance of selected radiolarian species in the upper Paleogene section of DSDP Hole 95-612

A major objective of DSDP Leg 95 (New Jersey Transect) was to investigate the effects of eustatic sea-level fluctuation and crustal subsidence on the depositional and erosional patterns of the Atlantic continental margin in the Baltimore Canyon trough area. Deep Sea Drilling Project Sites 612 and 613 were drilled on the New Jersey continental slope and rise during this leg.
