Abstract:
The results of paleomagnetic studies of samples from DSDP Leg 78A are reported. For Site 541, the interval from 60 to 200 m sub-bottom was correlated with the Matuyama through Gilbert polarity epochs. For Site 543, the interval from 150 to 190 m sub-bottom was correlated with marine magnetic Anomalies 5C through 5E. Down-dip directions of tilted beds inferred from declination values for Sites 541 and 542 suggest a pattern of monoclinal folding. Results from basalt samples are comparable to those from other DSDP sites in relatively old basalts.
