Abstract:
We drilled three sites (Sites 1071, 1072, and 1073) on the New Jersey shelf and slope at water depths between 88 and 664 m. Grain-size analyses from shelf sites (Sites 1071 and 1072) define five types of sediment: well-sorted fine sand, silty sand or sandy silt, clayey silt, poorly sorted sandy mud, and poorly sorted lag sediments. At slope Site 1073, a grain-size minimum of 3-6 µm is found at 300 meters below seafloor. These sediments are well sorted and lack sand- and clay-sized grains. Horizons of coarse-grained sediments are present in Unit I at Site 1073.
