(Table T1) Sedimentation rate, bulk density and mass accumulation rate of ODP Hole 198-1208A

Ocean Drilling Program Leg 198 Site 1208 is located on the Central High of Shatsky Rise (36°7.6301'N, 158°12.0952'E) in the North Pacific Ocean at a water depth of 3346 m. A total of 345.9 m of sediment was recovered from Hole 1208A. The sediment was divided into two major stratigraphic units: Holocene-Paleocene alternating nannofossil clay and nannofossil ooze with diatoms and radiolarians (Unit I, Subunits IA, IB, and IC) and Campanian-Albian nannofossil ooze with minor chert (Unit II). This study reports the terrigenous contribution to Site 1208 for the upper 24 m of Subunit IA, corresponding to ~560 ka.
