Volume 144 Index Index to Volume 144 INDEX TO VOLUME 144 This index provides coverage for both the Initial Reports and Scientific Results portions of Volume 144 of the Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program. Refer- ences to page numbers in the Initial Reports are preceded by “A” with a colon (A:), and to those in the Scientific Results (this book), by “B” with a colon (B:). In addi- tion, reference to material on CD-ROM is shown as “bp:CD-ROM.” The index was prepared by Earth Systems, under subcontract to the Ocean Drill- ing Program. The index contains two hierarchies of entries: (1) a main entry, defined as a keyword or concept followed by a reference to the page on which that word or concept appears, and (2) a subentry, defined as an elaboration on the main entry fol- lowed by a page reference. The index is presented in two parts: (1) a Subject Index and (2) a Taxonomic Index. Both parts cover text, figures, and tables but not core-description forms (“barrel sheets”), core photographs, smear-slide data, or thin-section descriptions; these are given in the Initial Reports. Also excluded from the index are biblio- graphic references, names of individuals, and routine front and back matter. The Subject Index follows a standard format. Geographic, geologic, and other terms are referenced only if they are subjects of discussion. This index also includes broad fossil groups such as nannofossils and radiolarians. A site chapter in the Ini- tial Reports is considered the principal reference for that site and is indicated on the first line of the site’s listing in the index. Such a reference to Site 871, for example, is given as “Site 871, A:41−103.” The Taxonomic Index is an index relating to significant findings and/or substan- tive discussions, not of species names per se. This index covers three varieties of information: (1) individual genera and species that have been erected or emended formally, (2) biostratigraphic zones, and (3) fossils depicted in illustrations. A taxo- nomic entry consisting of both genus and species is listed alphabetically by genus and also by species. Biostratigraphic zones are listed alphabetically by genus; zones with letter prefixes are listed under “zones.” For further information, including available electronic formats, contact the Chief Production Editor, Ocean Drilling Program, 1000 Discovery Drive, College Station, Texas 77845-9547, U.S.A., E-mail: [email protected] 1022 Index to Volume 144 SUBJECT INDEX acervulinids, abundance in carbonates, B:174, geophysical logs, B:659–661 petrology, A:236;

  • Cenozoic-Mesozoic-Paleozoic Integrated Stratigraphy and User- Generated Time Scale Graphics and Charts
    GeoArabia, Vol. 11, No. 3, 2006 Gulf PetroLink, Bahrain LETTER TO THE EDITOR hank you again for another outstanding issue of GeoArabia (vol. 11, no. 1, 2006). There is Tabsolutely no doubt that GeoArabia is the best stratigraphic journal in the world. This is for the simple reason that the geoscience described in this journal directly uses and directly refers to Stratigraphy in all its aspects and in a very comprehensive manner. The published papers are outstanding and serve the upstream industry, as well as scientific research and educational institutions. The International Commission on Stratigraphy (ICS) is presently working on improving the highly popular program Time Scale Creator (TS-Creator©) that can be downloaded freely from the ICS website. This data base is coordinated by Jim Ogg and the program was developed by Adam Lugowski. It provides large bio-, magneto-, chemo- and chrono-sequence stratigraphic charts for specific basins and specific time intervals. The ICS would like to extend this work to the Middle East basins by working closely with geoscientists from your region. In this regard we thank GeoArabia for explaining the studies conducted by the ICS to the Middle East geoscience community by publishing the feature on the ICS (vol. 11, no. 1, p. 159–160) and the following article. We look forward to hearing back from interested Middle East stratigraphers.

  • 4. Calibration of Miocene Nannofossil Events to Orbitally Tuned Cyclostratigraphies from Ceara Rise1
    Shackleton, N.J., Curry, W.B., Richter, C., and Bralower, T.J. (Eds.), 1997 Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program, Scientific Results, Vol. 154 4. CALIBRATION OF MIOCENE NANNOFOSSIL EVENTS TO ORBITALLY TUNED CYCLOSTRATIGRAPHIES FROM CEARA RISE1 Jan Backman2 and Isabella RafÞ3 ABSTRACT Ocean Drilling Program Site 926 sediments are well suited to serve as a reference section for calcareous nannofossil bio- stratigraphy from the low-latitude Atlantic Ocean in the 0- to 14-Ma time interval. Reasons include completeness in deposition and recovery, superbly resolved orbitally tuned chronologic control, generally good carbonate preservation, and the fact that this site represents a location where much evolution evidently occurred. Thirty-four nannofossil events, from the top of Cera- tolithus acutus to the top of Sphenolithus heteromorphus, have been investigated at 10-cm sample resolution (averaging 6 k.y.) in over 1400 samples from the earliest Pliocene (5.046 Ma) to the middle Miocene (13.523 Ma). These 34 events have been determined with an average chronological precision of ±7 k.y. This study emphasizes (1) the importance of quantitative approaches to determine time-dependent abundance variation of species to improve the understanding of paleoecologic responses of biostratigraphically useful species to variable and changing paleoenvironmental conditions; and (2) the importance of determining the smallest meaningful sampling interval to capture the Þnest details of the records of evolutionary emergence or extinction of species that are preserved in cores.

    J.micropaZaeontol., 5 (1): 91-108, April 1986 A comparative study of collections from the S.W. Pacific (Saipan to Tonga), with the descriptions of GambieZZa caudata (Brady, 1890) and a new species of Pterobairdia (Ostracoda) K. G. McKENZlE Riverina-Murray Institute of Higher Education, Wagga Wagga, N.S.W., 2650, Australia ABSTRACT4ambielln caudata (Brady, 1890) and Pterobairdia briggsae sp. nov. are described from collections made in the S.W. Pacific (Saipan, Onotoa, Ontong-Java/Kula Gulf, Nournea, Cook Islands, Fiji, Samoa, Tonga); and the lectotypes of several species described in a major early paper by Brady (1890) are illustrated. The carbonate compensation depth in this region lies at around 4500m. Comparison of the Ontong-Java in Kula Gulf samples reinforces consideration of depth as a factor of ecological importance. A similarity matrix for the several faunas shows factors in common at species level ranging from 22% (0notoa:Noumea) to nearly 60% (Samoa/Onotoa); while endemism ranges from 8.5% (Samoa) to nearly 33% (Tonga). "ost endemic species belong in a limited number of podocopid families, in par- ticular Bairdiidae, Trachyleberididae, Paradoxostomatidae and Leptocytheridae. These results appear consistent with an hypothesis that continued tectonics-driven changes in the regional marine topography and sedimentation, i.e. niche development, could have triggered speciation along the regional plate margins.

  • 4. Upper Oligocene to Pleistocene Ostracoda from Guyots in the Western Pacific: Holes 871A, 872C, and 873B1
    Haggerty, J.A., Premoli Silva, I., Rack, F., and McNutt, M.K. (Eds.), 1995 Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program, Scientific Results, Vol. 144 4. UPPER OLIGOCENE TO PLEISTOCENE OSTRACODA FROM GUYOTS IN THE WESTERN PACIFIC: HOLES 871A, 872C, AND 873B1 Robin Whatley2 and Ian Boomer2 ABSTRACT Assemblages of upper Oligocene to Pleistocene Ostracoda are described from pelagic sediments capping three guyots in the western Pacific Ocean. Recent studies have shown that a high percentage of seamount Ostracoda are restricted (i.e., endemic) to these bathymetrically isolated sites. In the following we detail changes in the Ostracoda (diversity, abundance, dominance, endemism, faunal turnover) from upper Oligocene to Pleistocene sediments encountered during Ocean Drilling Program Leg 144. Our results support previous observations on guyots and indicate that their high levels of endemism do not simply reflect a poor knowledge of the fauna in that region but truly reflect their bathymetrical isolation. Furthermore, whatever global event or events affected the deep-sea Ostracoda during the Miocene, the guyot faunas were not isolated from these changes. INTRODUCTION for the Pliocene-Pleistocene interval of a number of non-guyot, Pa- cific deep-sea sites range from 5% to 25%, compared with a range As our knowledge of deep-sea Ostracoda has advanced, it has from 50% to 60% for the Horizon (DSDP Sites 200/202) and Ita Mai become apparent that there exists in modern to Tertiary oceans both a Tai (DSDP Sites 44 and 171) guyots during the same interval. widespread pandemic element and regional, more endemic taxa The bathymetric isolation of the guyot summits has resulted in (Whatley and Ayress, 1988; Coles et al., 1990).

[email protected] Summary Knowledge of the biology of coccolithophores has progressed considerably in re- cent years thanks to culture studies and meticulous observations of coccospheres in wild samples. It has been confirmed that holococcolithophores and other "anomalous" coccolithophores are not autonomous but stages in the life cycle of oceanic heterococcolithophores. The existence of such heteromorphic life cycles linking former "species" has far reaching consequences on the taxonomy and no- menclature of coccolithophores and should foster research on the environmental factors triggering phase changes. The cytological characteristics of coccolithopho- res are reviewed in detail with special attention to the cell covering, coccolitho- genesis and the specificity of appendages in this group.
