These sediments are primarily composed of laminated organic-rich claystones interbedded with coarser, lightly laminated foraminferal-bearing packstones and wackestones. The black shales represent the local expression of widespread organic-rich sedimentation in the Atlantic during the mid-Cretaceous. However, incomplete recovery prevented construction of continuous composite sections, resulting in uncertainties concerning the correct stratigraphic placement of individual cores. By combining high-resolution measurements of bulk density collected shipboard on the multisensor track with continuous downhole measurements of formation resistivity using the Formation MicroScanner, an equivalent logging depth scale was constructed for black shales recovered from Sites 1258, 1260, and 1261. The integrated depths approach centimeter-scale resolution and are supported by comparisons of coarser resolution natural gamma ray emissions collected on cores and through downhole logging operations. The new depths highlight the extent of both intra- and intercore gaps and provide an opportunity to further constrain temporal and spatial paleoceanographic changes captured in proxy records from these sediments.completedStratigraphyApplied geophysicsAtlantic Oceanboreholescontinental margincorescorrectionscorrelationCretaceousdata processingDemerara Risedensitydepthdownhole methodselectrical methodsEquatorial AtlanticFrench Guianagamma-ray methodsgamma-ray spectrageophysical methodshigh-resolution methodsLeg 207lithostratigraphyMesozoicNorth AtlanticNorthwest AtlanticOcean Drilling ProgramODP Site 1257ODP Site 1258ODP Site 1259ODP Site 1260ODP Site 1261physical propertiesreconstructionresistivitySouth Americaspatial variationsspectrastratigraphic gapsSurinamwell logswestern Equatorial Atlanticurn:org.iodp:exp:207urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:207:site:1257urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:207urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:207:site:1258urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:207urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:207:site:1259urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:207urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:207:site:1260urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:207urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:207:site:1261urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:207urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation-54.4400-54.11009.02009.2800application/pdfunknownSEDIS Publication Catalogueana.macario@awi.dehttp://sedis.iodp.org/pub-catalogue/informationpointOfContacthttp://www-odp.tamu.edu/publications/207_SR/VOLUME/CHAPTERS/113.PDFdownload
