Abstract:
This paper presents a graphic correlation of high-latitude Cretaceous/Tertiary boundary sequences from Denmark, Weddell Sea (Southern Ocean) and the Kerguelen Plateau. A comparison is made to the boundary stratotype from El Kef (Tunisia). Microfossil data from numerous ODP and DSDP sites is presented. (mte)
