Description
Summary:Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Site 303-U1308 (49° 53'N, 24° 14'W; water depth 3871 m) provides a record of magnetization directions, relative paleointensity (RPI), susceptibility and benthic stable isotope stratigraphy back to 3.2 Ma. The record since 1.5 Ma has been published (Channell et al., Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 274, 59-71, 2008). This paper deals with the interval from 1.3 Ma to 3.2 Ma (Early Pleistocene-Late Pliocene). The benthic oxygen isotope record in this interval can be correlated to marine isotope stages (MIS) 51 to KM2, with an apparent hiatus that removed MIS G1-G2, immediately below the Gauss-Matuyama boundary. The mean sedimentation rate for the 1.5-3.2 Ma period is 8.5 cm/kyr. The age model was built by correlation of the oxygen isotope record to the LR04 stack. Carbon isotope data imply the influence of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) during interglacials with influence of southern source waters during glacials throughout the period, but with more muted δ¹³C ...
