Abstract:
A major objective of Leg 189 was to date the opening of the Australia-Antarctic Gateway to shallow-water circulation and subsequently to deepwater circulation in the Paleogene. Calcareous nannofossils are the most consistently present, although not necessarily the most abundant fossil group in Paleogene sections, and the shipboard study (Exon, Kennett, Malone, et al., 2001, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.ir.189.2001) showed that they generally provided the most useful age information. This report presents documentation of the stratigraphic distribution of nannofossils in the Paleogene and summarizes useful nannofossil datums, which should facilitate construction of age-depth curves and contribute to an integrated chronology for Leg 189 sediments. Previous Paleogene nannofossil study in this area is that of Edwards and Perch-Nielsen (1975, doi:10.2973/dsdp.proc.29.113.1975).
