This study provides the first detailed documentation of calcareous nannofossil assemblages in Eocene subantarctic Eltanin piston cores recovered from the southeast Pacific Ocean. These Eltanin cores are important because they have been reported to contain ice-rafted quartz. The present study confirm...
