Carbon isotope measurements were made on bulk sediments from the well preserved calcareous sequences recovered at ODP Sites 689 and 690 on the Maud Rise, Weddell Sea, Antarctica. The very positive delta13C values that characterize the late Paleocene and the rapid trend toward lighter values in the e...
