Biostratigraphy and Isotopic Paleotemperature of some Deep-Sea Cores from the Indian Ocean
Of the six deep-sea cores obtained from the central equatorial Indian Ocean along Long. 78°E. from Lat. 6°N. to Lat. 2°S., the northern three cores are composed of Globigerina ooze and calcareous clay and the other cores from 4,700-4,800 m in depth are of brown clay with some layers of secondary dep...

Of the six deep-sea cores obtained from the central equatorial Indian Ocean along Long. 78°E. from Lat. 6°N. to Lat. 2°S., the northern three cores are composed of Globigerina ooze and calcareous clay and the other cores from 4,700-4,800 m in depth are of brown clay with some layers of secondary deposited sediments. Paleotemperature curves of the northern three cores based on the oxygen isotopic method showed two temperature oscillations with an amplitude of about 6℃. and resemble closely those of the many deep-sea cores from the Atlantic, Pacific and Caribbean Sea measured by Emiliani (1955, -1967) and Rosholt et al.

The late Pleistocene chronology since the Mindel-Riss interglacial was considered on the basis of the paleotemperature curves, radiocarbon dates, and rate of sedimentation measured by the Io/Th method. Planktonic foraminiferal number in the sediments decreases generally with increasing depth.
