Size distribution patterns are generally typical of hemipelagic sediment with a subordinate amount of eolian material. However, the eolian fraction increases in the sapropel layers, which contrasts with findings from elsewhere in the Mediterranean but is consistent with other work at this location.Supplement to: Hassold, Noralynn J C; Rea, David K; Meyers, Philip A (2003): Grain size evidence for variations in delivery of terrigenous sediments to a Middle Pleistocene interrupted sapropel from ODP Site 969, Mediterranean Ridge.
