Three holes were drilled at Site 603 on the continental rise off the U.S. east coast during DSDP Leg 93. A thick Pliocene section and a few meters of lowermost Quaternary sediments were recovered in Hole 603C. A detailed biostratigraphic analysis, based on planktonic foraminiferal distribution, allo...
