Abstract:
Paleomagnetic and rock magnetic studies were conducted on sediment obtained from Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Site U1312 in order to construct an age model for understanding spatial and temporal changes in North Atlantic paleoceanography. Paleomagnetic directions suggest that the sedimentary sequence from 0 to 59.6 m composite depth (mcd) covers geomagnetic polarities from 0 to 3.6 Ma. Although high fluctuations of magnetic mineral concentrations in most studied intervals are inadequate for a relative paleomagnetic intensity (RPI) study, proxies of RPI in the interval 16.9-46 mcd, which is relatively constant in magnetic mineral concentrations, represent an RPI pattern similar to previous North Atlantic data. This similarity suggests good potential for further age control using RPI on sediments from Site U1312.
