This contribution summarizes the biostratigraphy of planktonic foraminifers, calcareous nannofossils, and benthic foraminifers, in combination with the magnetostratigraphy, carbon and oxygen isotope stratigraphy of benthic foraminifers, and CaCO3 stratigraphy for the Maestrichtian through Paleogene calcareous sequences recovered at Sites 689 and 690 on Maud Rise (at about 65°S, eastern Weddell Sea, Antarctica). These data represent the southernmost calciumcarbonate record available for that interval, and thus extend the biostratigraphic and isotopic database to higher latitudes. Sites 689 and 690 form the southernmost anchor of a north-south transect through the Atlantic Ocean for Paleogene biostratigraphy and chemostratigraphy. ... : Supplement to: Thomas, Ellen; Barrera, Enriqueta C; Hamilton, Norman; Huber, Brian T; Kennett, James P; O'Connell, Suzanne B; Pospichal, James J; Spieß, Volkhard; Stott, Lowell D; Wei, Wuchang; Wise, Sherwood W (1990): Upper Cretaceous-Paleogene stratigraphy of Sites 689 and 690, Maud Rise (Antarctica).
