39. PALYNOSTRATIGRAPHY OF THE LOWER CRETACEOUS SECTION AT DEEP SEA DRILLING PROJECT SITE 391, BLAKE-BAHAMA BASIN, AND ITS CORRELATION IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC

Dinoflagellate and sporomorph zonations are presented for the Lower Cretaceous section recovered from the Blake-Bahama Basin in the western North Atlantic, at Hole 391C. The palyniferous interval ranges from Berriasian (stratigraphic level of Core 38) through late Albian (Core 6), on the basis of pr...

Description
Summary:Dinoflagellate and sporomorph zonations are presented for the Lower Cretaceous section recovered from the Blake-Bahama Basin in the western North Atlantic, at Hole 391C. The palyniferous interval ranges from Berriasian (stratigraphic level of Core 38) through late Albian (Core 6), on the basis of precise correlation of the Hole 391C section with the independently dated palynomorph reference zones at Site 105. The following dinoflagellate zones are distinguished, in ascending
