Abstract:
Percent CaCO3 was determined in selected samples aboard the ship by the carbonate-bomb technique (Müller and Gastner, 1971). Results of these analyses are listed in Table 1 and plotted in Figures 1, 3, 4, and 5 as plus signs (+). Samples collected specifically for analyses of CaCO3 and organic carbon were analyzed at three shore-based laboratories. Concentrations of total carbon, organic carbon, and CaCO3 were determined in some samples at the DSDP sediment laboratory, using a Leco carbon analyzer, by personnel of the U.S. Geological Survey, under the supervision of T. L. Valuer. Most of these samples were collected from lithologic units containing relatively high concentrations of organic carbon. Sample procedures are outlined in Boyce and Bode (1972). Precision and accuracy are both ±0.3% absolute for total carbon, ±0.06% absolute for organic carbon, and ±3% absolute for CaCO3.
